Eight creative domestic gyms and sports facilities that offer a workout without leaving home
For our latest lookbook, we've collected eight projects from Dezeen's archive that feature home gyms and fitness suites, including an entrance hall that doubles as a basketball court and an exercise space in a garden cabin.
Home gyms provide a space exercise without having to leave the house and can offer a convenient solution for keeping active during busy periods of working from home or during the colder winter months.
These eight examples highlight how a home can be extended to feature a gym ? such as by building a garden cabin ? and how exercise equipment can be added that makes clever use of existing space, including a climbing wall built onto a house's facade.
This is the latest roundup in our Dezeen Lookbooks series that provide visual inspiration for designers and design enthusiasts. Previous lookbooks include homes with exposed brickwork, bohemian hotels and dark and moody interiors.
Basketball Court House, Japan, by Koizumi SekkeiÂ
Local architecture firm Koizumi Sekkei designed the atrium of this house in Shizuoka, Japan, as a basketball court surrounded by an open-plan upper gallery.
The space features a three-metre-high hoop mounted on a timber balustrade that overlooks the court, while rooms that surround the space are protected from stray balls by flexible sliding doors and industrial metal grilles.
