Atlas Cinema is a historically significant cinema building that holds an important place in Istanbul’s cultural memory. The main approach of this project was to preserve the building’s original architectural character and historical identity while meeting the acoustic comfort and performance requirements of contemporary cinema technologies. Throughout the restoration process, the spatial layout, proportions, and architectural language of Atlas Cinema were meticulously preserved. All interventions were designed in accordance with the principles of reversibility, respect for the existing structure, and minimal intervention. Within the scope of the acoustic applications, the following elements were designed and implemented without compromising the historical fabric of the building: Interior sound insulation of the auditorium, Control of reverberation time, Clear speech intelligibility and homogeneous sound distribution, Acoustic finishes and detailed solutions suitable for cinema use. This project represents a sensitive and holistic approach in which architectural and acoustic disciplines are integrated, serving as an example of how a historic structure can be successfully adapted for contemporary use.
