Simple Training
Simple Training is a fitness center interior located in Shanghai. The design returns to the origin of fitness, with a single focus on exercise in a calm, home-like setting. White walls and timber work are combined with soft natural light from large windows. A square layout places the functional areas around the main spaces, so circulation is direct and odd corners are reduced. Storage is consolidated vertically. Specialty flooring in the instruction room withstands heavy impact and lowers impact noise. Space is also reserved for yoga classes.
Simple Training Gym by Carlie Ling - K.D Hsu was selected as a grand illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Awards.

The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design recognition program that rewards exceptional design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
