Article source: ViVeA – Viveck Vermaa Architects CRUNCH is a Lifestyle Fitness Facility offering state of the art Fitness Center, Slimming and Spa services with an objective of making the community health conscious and Fit for life. It is situated in one of the up market shopping Malls. The objective was to create a high end gym with all the latest facilities.
The most prominent feature of design is its Ambience. The theme chosen for the gym was cosy & monochromatic with beiges and browns. All the materials like flooring, wall papers, fabrics etc. were chosen around this theme, in addition to having their own practical utility. There are five sections in the gym:
As the site offered a twenty two feet high ceiling, a mezzanine floor was created where separate spa facilities for ladies and gents have been accommodated. The cardio zone was created on the front periphery of the Mall and the whole opaque façade of the Mall was replaced by transparent curtain wall to create more visibility from the outside. Another continuous glass façade was erected towards the atrium of the mall as another step to enhance visibility. All the treatment rooms in slimming area are soundproof with individual music and weather control. Two rooms have attached shower & steam rooms. All rooms have multiple lighting options for supporting multiple activities. The Gym is centrally air conditioned. It has CCTV & Bio Metric access & security systems at critical areas.
