Denzel and Marcus - Designing for Cinemas

Designing for Cinemas 

Today I was reading with my buddy Denzel. We were reading about cinemas and how someone designs one. One thing we both learned was that the cinema floors were made to resist liquid and and solid foot steps at the same time!. Maybe next time we can work on reading the article faster rather than reading it like a robot. We also learned that popcorn pops because of the starch and moist in the corn kernels.
Denzels favourite part in the article is when they were testing the floors with drinks by spilling them on it because it was funny. My favourite part is when Ian Swan was designing the projection room because it took a lot of thinking. Did you know that Ian Swan has been designing cinemas for over 30 years, that's two times my age and more.
