Hines, the Building Manager and long time CP&A client, along with the building owner decided to offer a Fitness Center as a new tenant amenity. After selecting the new first floor location just off the main lobby, Hines came to CP&A for both design and documentation services.
The new location was a challenge because it was long and narrow and fronted along the main public corridor with full height existing glass walls. Working closely with Hines, CP&A designed an interior that included the following improvements:
- ADA-accessible restrooms with showers and lockers
- A workout space with mirrors that made the space feel larger
- Vibrant and energetic colors
- A patterned, frosted film applied to the existing glass walls that conveyed energy and movement while providing visual privacy for the Fitness Center users from the public corridor traffic just outside
- Card access entrance for security and control
