Built in 1947 during the Portuguese dictatorship and closed in 2001, after many historical events and failed atempts to rebuild it, cinema Batalha reopened in 2022, after a renovation project by two local architects, bringing back its charm to the city of Porto. It now offers a range of subliminal, auteur or underground movies, cultural experiences and even artistic workshops.
The new visual identity was created by local design studio Macedo Cannatà, managed by Maria João Macedo and Dário Cannatà. The new visual identity uses a minimal yet playful style of typography, using Theinhardt Standard and Semi Condensed for the logo and multiple applications. The type family by Swiss foundry Optimo references the work of Berthold and Neue Graphik, adding a clean and modernist aspect to Batalha.
