About Oxygen Dubai Frumhlutverk: Líkamsræktarstöð
Bókartexti: Oxygen Dubai er djörf byggingarlistarleg yfirlýsing sem sameinar iðnaðarfagurfræði við einkennandi karlmannlega stemningu. Líkamsræktarstöðin, sem nær yfir 6.500 fermetra og var byggð með 30 milljóna dollara fjárhagsáætlun, einkennist af hrárri steinsteypu og svörtu stáli sem endurspeglar styrk og þrautseigju. Þessi einstaka hönnun skapar umhverfi sem hentar fyrir krefjandi æfingar og höfðar til þeirra sem brenna fyrir líkamsrækt. Auk umfangsmikilla æfingasvæða býður Oxygen Gym upp á heildstætt úrval þæginda, þar á meðal veitingastað, verslanir, heilsulind, sundlaug, garð, geymsluhólf og búningsklefa, sem efla heildarupplifunina.
