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 to create a luxury gym with separate spaces for women, strength training and CrossFit, along with reception and cafeteria areas.

02

The user

Who the space needed to serve

The gym had to accommodate a variety of training audiences and activities on several floors.

03

The constraint

What stood in the way

The challenge was coordinating multiple floors and activities while the project also went through a temporary halt and changing priorities.

04

The move

What changed in the plan

We carried one design language across the floors, building on the dark gym concept while introducing different elements to distinguish each floor.

05

The result

What improved in use

The project brought multiple training and hospitality functions together while allowing each floor to have its own character within the larger gym.

06

The learning

What we take forward

The project taught us that an initial idea can evolve into better ones as constraints and priorities change during the design process.
