Another timeless : Cinema LUX in Massagno.
With its aerial and spacious architecture, this modest yet iconic building evokes a bygone era and stands as a quiet stronghold for auteur cinema in the Lugano region.
Built in 1958 and designed by architect Costantino Pozzi of Massachusetts, the venue spans two levels with separate entrances: the Cinema Hall entrance on Via Motta and the Cosmo Hall entrance on the south-facing lower level.
Preserved in its original form, the LUX offers a timeless aesthetic that makes it a unique and atmospheric backdrop for films, documentaries, period pieces, or photo shoots.
