Renovating a Copenhagen gym with the Beta Boulders concept

A collaboration between LADO architects and the startup "Beta Boulders" was born in 2018 with the aim of creating spaces for sporting activity located in urban centers across Europe

The concept of creating an ideal lifestyle

Beta Boulders' concept is to create a repeatable intervention model that promotes an ideal lifestyle for an audience of young people seeking physical activity in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The building renovation and new gymnasium layout in Copenhagen designed by LADO Architetti  is the pilot project for this initiative

Redesigning an old car paint shop

Specifically, the interior of an old car paint shop is being redesigned, creating multifunctional and flexible spaces for working, playing sports and various other sports activities. The spacious and bright cafeteria/reception area welcomes users and leads to the main spaces of the building

Bouldering gymnasium

On the ground floor is the focal point of the entire facility, namely a gymnasium with a large area dedicated to bouldering, the construction of which was made possible thanks to the generous heights of the old factory. The intricate developments of the bouldering walls harmonize with the colors and different heights, thus diversifying areas and functions to maximize climbing surfaces

First floor space distribution

The reception area is accessed via a metal spiral staircase to the first floor where a large open space dedicated to co-working opens up. The yoga room, also on the first floor, echoes the same two-tone combination adopted throughout the project through the use of light wood flooring and black finishes
