Kosovafilm was strategically built in the periphery with the aim of expanding the cultural infrastructure of the time with the construction of a film city. Being on top of the Arbëria neighborhood enabled Kosovafilm to have a grand panoramic view of Pristina but also keep a distance from it. The building’s outward appearance was designed to harmonize with the surrounding nature. In order to convey the purpose of the building, the architect Salih Spahiu chose ocher to resemble the colors of the iconic American Kodak Company. Completed in 1987, it served the film community only briefly before it was shut down for almost a decade by the Milosević regime. Since 1999, it has been a KFOR military base and is closed to film professionals and visitors. Inspired by Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright, Spahiu is one of the few examples of local architects who has domesticated modernist architectural vocabularies and helped define Kosovar architectural thought.
