The case study

Six decisions from shell to opening

The project is shown in the same order it was solved — beginning with the business brief and ending with what the studio carried forward

01

The brief

What needed to be built

The client wanted a unique fitness space for lifestyle users, designed to become an attraction for a young audience.

02

The user

Who the space needed to serve

The space needed to bring together different activities while creating an experience that appealed to a younger, lifestyle-focused audience.

03

The constraint

What stood in the way

The challenge was fitting cardio, Zumba, dumbbells and strength training into 3,500 sq ft without making the space feel divided.

04

The move

What changed in the plan

We used the ceiling and flooring as visual demarcation instead of adding partitions. We combined Cardio and Zumba because they could share the same lighting and music conditions.

05

The result

What improved in use

The design was very well received and responded to and the client eventually had to move to larger premises because of the demand.

06

The learning

What we take forward

The project showed us how different elements, when planned in harmony, can create a space that flows seamlessly.
