Fit 90 Gym

Type
Gym — commercial interiors
Location
Alexandria, Egypt

A gym is a hard room to photograph: black ceilings, mirrored walls, linear light and equipment that fills every sightline. This one was shot for its two organising devices — the printed running track through the plan, and the oak that warms every dark surface it meets.

The cardio floor along the printed running track, oak wall on the left.
Reception desk in oxidised steel under an illuminated Fit 90 sign.
The reception from the entrance, dark joinery against oak.
The Fit 90 emblem cut from steel on a perforated screen.
Corridor to the studios, bamboo planting along the glass.
Stair void with an olive tree behind full-height glazing.

The set was made between sessions so the floors read as ready rather than empty, with one frame kept in use. Reception, circulation and the weights room are covered separately, because an operator sells the first and a designer publishes the last.

The same void after dark, the tree lit from below.
Corridor with a warm cove light along the oak wall.
Row of upright bikes over the printed running track.
Cardio floor along the window wall, city light across the machines.
Resistance machines and a rowing station under linear lighting.
The floor in use, a member crossing between machines.
Bikes and the start marking on the track, seen down the room.
Mirrored wall lettering running the length of the track.
Wide view of the machine floor with wall graphics.
The track past a frosted glass partition.
Free-weights floor: racks, benches and dark rubber flooring.
The weights room wide, mirrored end wall doubling the space.
Climbing figures mounted on an oak panel above the stair.
