Unique Properties
The first Pilates studio in Tianjin designed by Touch Design, has broken the usual established mindset. Because designers want to distinguish Pilates studio from the ordinary gym, and combine sports and style to design with primitive, natural, exquisite and modern sports elements. Therefore, in the design process, they chose exquisite stainless steel as the main material, with exposed white ceilings, and panDOMO floor, to plan another kind of stretching space for trainers.
Dimensions & Packaging
The project covers a total of 300 square meters. At the beginning of the design, designers considered such necessary areas as rest area, dressing area, storage area, toilet, bathroom and vegetarian beverage area, so that people gathered here for training can enjoy comfortable physical and mental relaxation besides regular exercise.

Production Technology
In the design of the ceiling of the whole space, designers mostly use white latex paint to finish the original top surface, with the exquisite feeling of stainless steel stairs, partition walls and dining tables, plus the neutral and non-textural panDOMO floor, so that the whole space reflects a special strength of beauty, making people look so clean and comfortable.
Design Challenge
As the saying goes, "There are many beautiful skins in the world, but few interesting souls." Touch Design's persistence and exploration of design has never ceased. A super clean-looking Pilates studio has become the carrier of light and brightness with exquisite stainless steel metals, forming a dazzling brilliance in space.
Research
There are two layers of space in this case. The first layer is Pilates public training area, leisure area and vegetarian beverage area. Designers combine the check-out and consultation functions of the reception desk with vegetarian beverage area, to make the movement line in the space more reasonable and make the staff more efficient. The second floor is mainly the equipment area and private teaching area.
Inspiration
Most of people try to make themselves better for the people they like, and the process of transformation, perhaps is their best appearance. This Pilates studio is designed to make people stronger and better through sports. Just like the movie "Love and Other Drugs", designers hope that everyone who plays here can get the "Drug" through Pilates, which can change their living conditions and quality of life.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2018 in Tianjin and finished in April 2018 in Tianjin.
Operation Flow
Visual impact is more likely to affect people's psychological feelings, so whether on the first or second floor, designers all have designed super-large mirrors on the necessary walls. Through the reflection of the mirror, the tension of the whole space is enlarged and the sense of space is more intense.
