Gyms & Wellness Spaces

A gym is not a living room with equipment dropped into it. The things that make a fitness or wellness space feel right, the glow of backlit walls, the warmth of wood slats overhead, the weight and finish of the machines, the way light falls in a small, windowless studio, are exactly the things a generic interior render gets wrong. Our client builds boutique gyms, sporting clubs, and wellness studios for luxury properties, and came to us because these spaces are a category we know how to render.

Over 2025 we produced the visuals for four of their projects: a sporting club and spa on South Beach, a boutique infrared studio in downtown Aspen, a refresh of a residential tower's fitness center, and a private home gym. Different scales and settings, one consistent standard for how a fitness space should read.

The brief was rarely just to show the room. It was to make each space feel like somewhere you would actually want to train, so the client could refine the design, get sign-off, and present it before anything was built.

At a beachfront tower on South Beach, the fitness floor opens onto floor-to-ceiling windows full of palms and ocean, under a warm wood-slat ceiling. We rendered the cardio room, the functional-training zone, and the strength floor as one connected space, so the equipment layout and the daylight both read the way they would on the floor.

Our client runs the building's sporting club and spa, so the renderings had to match the standard members expect when they walk in, less institutional gym, more resort amenity.

In the center of Aspen, a compact ground-floor space was reimagined as a boutique studio built around infrared-sauna training: rows of glass-fronted cabins you can take a bike or a rower into, a recovery room, a coffee and retail bar, and a small training area. It is a tight footprint, so every surface had to work hard and still feel considered.

The design was mood before machines. Warm wood, a Himalayan salt wall, backlighting everywhere, and greenery brought in to answer the mountain town outside. We rendered the reception, the coffee bar, the sauna cabins, and the training area so the client could test that atmosphere room by room before committing to the build.

For a South Beach residential tower, the job was a refresh of an existing fitness center. We modeled the cardio and strength areas under the building's exposed white ductwork and wood-slat accents, keeping the industrial ceiling as a feature rather than hiding it.

Each view was rendered in two flooring options, a light terrazzo and a wood-look plank, from the same camera angle, so the client could compare them side by side and choose with confidence rather than guess from a sample.

The fourth project was a private home gym in a waterfront residence: a wood-paneled room with a cable machine, an adjustable bench, and a row of treadmills set along a window onto the water. Two camera angles, delivered so the owner could see the finished room, materials, artwork, and all, before the equipment ever arrived.
