Children’s Space Kalorias Montijo

The Children´s Space is one of the less expected functions in a gym. However, to help families – due to long working hours, lack of time and alternatives with whom to leave the children – Kalorias Club provides this service in order to increase the attendance of its members in their new facility in Montijo. Therefore, the Children´s Space turns out to be a “world” on its own, for a very special and demanding public.

Programmatically the space was divided into two areas, one dedicated to manual activities, reading and studies, and one other more suited to the physical activities. This separation is present not only conceptually, but also spatially by the intersection of two perpendicular volumes, separated visually by the means of a diagonal line which color and texture differences, enhances the specificity of the space use.

In the reading area stands out the black tone of the floor and slate wall – which serves as a writing and drawing pad – where next to it furniture was arranged for different age groups. In the leisure area synthetic grass make us imagine how it feels to be in a football field, but also triggers the idea of a mountain, where applied vinyl’s tell us stories and lead the children to arouse their imagination.

The glazing to the reception allows any viewer to see the kids activities. The idea is to show the energie and the joy for those who come inside the club.
The space includes one area for studying, one area for playing and a small wc. The limits of these three areas are highlighted by the different materials.
The study room includes two islands and chairs for kids of different ages. It also includes an area to read freely with cubic bookshelfs and colored seats.
On the picture one can have the perception of the different atmospheres of each area. The choise of the materials and colors allows this unique identity.
As whole space, formed by a L shape, it is composed by two areas with distinct functions that are visually demarked by the different materials and colors.
The application of synthetic grass on the floor and on the walls enables physical activities, carrying the kids to an atmosphere in touch with the nature.
With a L disposition the kids area was conceived in two different zones for the kids activities, where also includes a small sanitary area between them.
The application of synthetic grass on the pavement and on the floor allows a sense of unity feeling to the atmosphere and generates distinct visual relations.
