Realisation of Machinerie film and visual culture centre
Stichting de Machinerie intends to realise a multifunctional centre for film and visual culture in Utrecht. The project concerns the transformation of the 2,400 m² industrial hall of Central Studios, 11 m high, into a space with cinema halls, presentation rooms, catering, office and studio spaces. De Machinerie is intended to provide accommodation for employees of the Nederlands Film Festival, FOTODOK and HIT, and to offer space to filmmakers, editors, VR developers, animation studios and photographers. The assignment requires a building transformation that complies with construction and safety standards, including sound insulation, lighting and ventilation systems, accessibility and fire safety. The contractor must have experience with large-scale redevelopment of industrial spaces and knowledge of the specific requirements of film and media production. De Machinerie is a strategic project for film and visual culture in Utrecht, the second film city of the Netherlands, and contributes to talent development, education and cultural presentations.
