In the late 1980s the management undertook their biggest single project to date. Completed in 1993, the Shaw House project is a 22 storey complex located in the heart of the city. The building comprises 5 floors of shops and restaurants operated by Isetan, 12 floors of offices and the Lido Cineplex. The cineplex started out with only five screens but in order to keep up with the growing demands of the marketplace, it was transformed into an eight-plex by 1997. Today, Lido is by far the most popular cinema on the island, accounting for the biggest share of the box office pie.

The largest hall, Lido One, has a capacity of over 900. It was the first hall in Singapore to bear certification as a THX hall as well as SDDS, DTS, SRD and Dolby SR. To achieve maximum capacity, the Lido projection booth has the ability to "interlock" one print in more than one hall, enabling a popular film to be seen in several halls. Within the halls, ergonomic 'rocking' cinema chairs with flip-up arms and cup holders were also introduced. Today, Lido One is the largest digital hall on the island.
