Description
The need to be physically fit is a growing concern for all humans as it helps prolong life and prevent unfavourable health conditions. As awareness is growing concerning fitness the Lagos state government has desided to erect the first purpose built fitness centre in the state. This project is aimed at designing a befitting fitness centre for Lagos State with the view of addressing universal design. Findings from the research showed that most fitness centres in Nigeria are not universally designed or purpose built. This study has developed an architectural design of a fitness centre that conforms to the principles and practice of universal design and adopts other needs of the 21st century fitness centre. To achieve this, the methodologies to be adopted include case studies and study of related literature.
