The club serves as a co-work area, a lounge furnished with a fireplace and large library, a gym and a concierge alongside various seating spaces. The urban quarter has been created by the real estate developer Trockland.  Image Courtesy © Noam Rosenthal

The functions in the central space are divided by steel and glass partitions, which include a lounge alongside a work bar, a waiting area and a balcony overlooking the inner courtyard of the complex.

A large neon sign from a sports hall from the 70's in Berlin, is adorning the gym. All luxury fitness equipment, including a water rower and a bike, is made out of natural materials, such as wood and upholstered in camel faux leather.
