DESIGN E XERCISE WELLNESS AND FITNESS IN THE AMENITY INVESTED WORKPLACE

The following pages sample HOK’s graphic design associated with health and wellness, exercise and fitness. These designs vary across a wide spectrum of utility. Many designs support the fitness environments and exercise functions now commonplace in the new century workplace. Other solutions provide image and identity for campaigns and initiatives advocating a kinetic lifestyle. Yet other projects undertake to brand fitness – including the Olympic level. All these designs share a layer of “edutainment” mixed with functionality. We only need to look at the rise of game rooms and yoga classes as corporate amenities to understand the trends these designs respond to. These exercises respond to the cultural and generational drivers of the newest workscape amenities.
