In der südkoreanischen Metropole entstand in den Jahren 2007 bis 2011 das Busan Cinema Center (BCC), das ab 2012 Schauplatz für das Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) sein wird, eines der wichtigsten Filmfestspiele in Asien. Zwischen einem Kinokomplex in Massivbauweise mit mehreren Kinosälen und einem großen Theatersaal sowie einem Verwaltungsbau spannen zwei Stahldächer mit gewaltigen Ausmaßen, welche die Open‐Air Bereiche des BCC überspannen und dem Projekt ihre charakteristische Signatur verleihen. Während das so genannte small roof zwischen den Gebäuden ca. 110 m weit gespannt ist, kragt das big roof an einer Seite spektakuläre 85 m aus und ist somit die weiteste Dach‐Auskragung der Welt.
The roofs of the Busan Cinema Center. The Busan Cinema Center (BCC) has been built between 2007 and 2011 in the Southkorean metropolis Busan. The BCC will be the future location for the Busan International Film Festival (BIFF), which is one of the most important film festivals in Asia. Two roofs with immense dimensions are spanning between a massive building comprising several cinemas and a big theatre and between a building for administrational use. The two roofs are protecting the open air areas of the BCC and are the characteristic elements of the architectural design. The so‐called small roof is a single spanning roof with a span width of app. 110 m. The big roof is a spectacular canopy cantilevering 85 m. It is the longest cantilevering roof structure in the world.
