My last academic architecture project. An old office building in Lisbon, belonging to an Energy Company, is adapted to a gym. The concept of energy production is applied, when harnessing the kinetic energy of the weights the athletes activate. This huge wall of steel profiles, the weights, is inspired on the old tall shelves used to store the electricity meters.
