Transforming a small space into a performance zone: The SwissBasketball project
When SwissBasketball approached us to design a warm-up and weight-training area in the Beaulieu sports halls, our team knew that this project would require creativity and technical expertise to overcome significant space constraints and specific needs for high-level athletes.
A tailor-made sports equipment solution for basketball professionals
Understanding specific needs
The project consisted in creating a dedicated weight training and warm-up area for SwissBasketball players and other clubs using the Beaulieu basketball hall. The challenges were many:
- Limited space: the area had never been designed for weight training equipment. There used to be a bar area.
- Need for optimization: The layout had to allow for efficient storage of equipment.
- Technical requirements: The equipment manager had specific requests concerning the equipment.
A customized sports equipment solution
Our team has adopted a multi-stage approach:
- Preliminary analysis: On-site visit and in-depth study of available space.
- Tailor-made design: we develop a range of equipment specifically selected to meet the needs of basketball players.
- Evolutionary planning: Preparation of a plan allowing for future extensions to guarantee the long-term future of the installation.
- Expert installation: set up by our specialized technicians.
