Tru3 Yoga Studio is a health and wellness studio located around the coastline of Kuwait. This project is designed from demolishing four existing apartments of an entire floor within a residential complex.
A holistic design approach is adapted through Japanese design principles in terms of a minimal material palette and overall simplicity. The interior architectural design concept is inspired by the curvaceous body forms integrated within the yoga practice while connecting to three factors: mind, body, and soul. Interior elements consist of bold curvaceous forms adapted into the ceiling and the walls, bronze tinted glass blocks, oak wood, exposed concrete, lavish use of greenery, and delicate earth tones.
The design of the space is segregated into distinguished areas which accommodate the well being of the mind, body, and soul. For instance, the tea room is the representation of the mind. The sun room is the biggest studio which targets the body. The ceiling is custom designed to suit the function of the space by situating and embedding x-mounts cleverly for the use of aerial yoga. Whereas the moon room is the smaller studio targeting the emotional and spiritual self.
The changing room area is an extension of the overall minimal design aesthetic with hidden frame-less toilet doors, corian communal sink, with off-white textured wall paint and linen curtains. The use of bronze mirror combined with indoor-plants opens the overall distinguished interior.
