BLOK — COMMERCIAL GYM

Our largest project to date for this rapidly growing gym brand. Located on the groundfloor of the renovated Ducie Street Warehouse in Manchester which also boasts the Native Apart Hotel and Cultureplex restaurant. We worked with Daytrip Studio and Blok London to produce a majority of the fixtures, furniture and fittings for their third location.
