The brief

People choose a gym by what's inside and whether a class fits their day. This design preview shows both straight away and makes the first session easy to book.

What we built

  • Text that fills as you scroll

    A large line about the club turns from grey to white, word by word, as visitors scroll, while the photos beside it move at different speeds.

  • Train or recover

    Moving the cursor to the left opens the training side with its classes, and moving it right opens the sauna and plunge pools. On a phone it becomes two tabs.

  • A timetable for every day

    Day tabs list each class with its coach and how many spots are left. Tapping a class fills in the free session form for that day.

  • What's on right now

    A bar under the opening screen shows the sauna and plunge temperatures, the next class and when the club closes.

  • A promotional pop-up

    A square pop-up offers 10% off the first three months for joining online. On this preview it doesn't collect anything.

The design

A warm brown page with copper buttons, a fine serif logo with a hexagon crest (the shape basalt forms in nature), and a clean sans-serif for everything else.

Built for phones

On a phone the training and recovery sides become tabs, each class fits on one row, and the pop-up fills the width. Visitors who turn off motion see the text already filled in.
