"Every day the Shanghai skyline changes, new construction sprouts from the ruins of old buildings. The city is always pushing boundaries, with revolutionary architecture and skyscrapers that set and break world records.

Now Shanghai is set to go one step further with a proposal for Cinepanorama, said by the designer, Jean Pierre Heim, to be the world's largest outdoor multimedia center.

The concept envisions an open-air outdoor complex of three overlapping zones, including a shopping area, a 250-seat restaurant and an open-air single-screen cinema for 850 to 3,000 people. The complex will have numerous side rooms where people can socialize and watch TV and movies."
