ArchEcho proudly delivered the first standalone fitness club design aligned with the new Fitness Time identity. This project reflects innovation in layout, structural efficiency, and cost-effective spatial planning.
The club was built entirely using a steel structure, enabling soaring interior heights and creating open, dynamic fitness environments. A suspended central pool forms the heart of the facility. Most gym areas offer direct views of this focal point, providing a vibrant and connected experience for users.
Despite reducing the total area from 3,200 to 2,000 square meters, all core functionalities were preserved. In fact, minimizing the club’s footprint led to substantial benefits:
-
Construction cost savings of over SAR 5 million.
-
Enhanced operational efficiency.
-
Electricity bills dropped by nearly 40% due to improved HVAC and lighting performance.
Thanks to this thoughtful standalone fitness club design, the facility operates at lower cost without compromising service quality or user experience.
The success of this model led Leejam Sports to adopt it as the new standard for Fitness Time. So far, the same concept has been replicated in over 10 locations, including Riyadh, Hail, Majma’ah, Sakaka, Jeddah, Jubail, and Arar. In some cities, the design was mirrored to create both male and female clubs side-by-side.
In summary, this flagship standalone fitness club design showcases how a compact layout, paired with smart engineering, can lead to higher profitability and a better customer experience. ArchEcho is proud to pioneer this model and continues to lead the fitness architecture scene in Saudi Arabia.
