Empire IMAX, Leicester Square

Cole Jarman are proud to have worked on this monumental scheme to transform the historic but ageing Screen 1 into two new auditoria: the Impact Screen which is fitted with an impressive Dolby Atmos system, and the new IMAX which currently boasts the widest screen in the UK at 26.5m.

We provided design advice from early stages through to completion, working closely with Empire’s architect and structural engineer to fabricate, amongst other acoustic design aspects, the technically challenging wall which separates the two new screens.

The cinema has since been bought by Cineworld.
