“Made For understood that we wanted to create a studio that felt like a beautiful eclectic home. Their attention to detail really brought everything together for us, with every little corner or nook being executed to absolute perfection. On top of that, they were just all-round a joy to work with!” Hannah Davis, Co-Founder – Club AMPM Pilates

Creating an energising yet home-like environment for pilates veterans and first-timers alike was at the core of this project for Club AMPM Pilates. Made For worked with the founders to create a space that aligned with the broad clientele of the business whilst responding innovatively to the challenges of the space.

Comprising one reformer and one mat pilates room, the considered use of materiality allowed the space to feel open yet still retain a sense of intimacy and warmth. By utilising wood grain, textured glass and purposeful feature curves, the client’s desires to imbue moments of earthiness and rawness were reflected. The warm and approachable palette combined with the humble yet refined cork flooring and skirting captured the spirit of AMPM’s welcoming and fun vision for their studio. Importantly, the space was still able to coexist as a place for Abby and Hannah’s vivacious personalities to call home.

The space plan seamlessly integrated services and base build conditions. Given that the space is part of a large development, there were restrictions in terms of columns, locations of plumbing, and services. Columns were hidden within plaster build outs and operable services within organically shaped bulkheads, contributing to a space which felt extremely considered, comfortable and lived-in.

“We worked alongside founders Abby and Hannah from start to finish. We helped them develop their design brief and understand the needs of their new business. Together, we designed a space that felt like a sanctuary for their clients that embodied the warm and playful energy that started it all.” Maddi Stevenson, Associate Director – Made For
