Architect Jean Marc Rivet’s funky design for a small gym located in Saint Gilles, France features an imaginative profile that slopes toward the sky. The gym’s inclined, rounded boxes are certainly good fun, but they also provide raised surfaces that capture sunlight. A green roof and a solar array grace the sections crossing the main volume, creating an unexpected look for a simple neighborhood rec room. Getting motivated to hit the gym may be a lot easier when it’s inside such a fun space.
