The Plaza reveals its new visual identity
The new visual identity of the Plaza was developed by Schaffter Sahli studio. The identity highlights the close relationship between architecture and typography. A new website will be launched by the end of the year.
The Plaza and the Mont-Blanc Centre – the building above the cinema theatre – designed by Marc J. Saugey are
iconic examples of post-war modernist architecture in Geneva.
The Plaza was the first cinema in Switzerland to screen in Cinemascope.
Keeping cinema at its core, the Plaza Centre Cinéma will engage with various cultural disciplines and offer a diverse program to a broad audience.
The heritage-listed building is carefully restored since 2020.
