About Wellness Facilities projects

Wellness facilities in New Zealand need a brief that accounts for how people arrive, move through the building and use each space. Projects such as O-Studio by Three Sixty Architecture and Te Whare Awhi Ora by MODE Design provide built examples for comparison. Read the project information alongside the images, considering how each building relates to its setting rather than treating its appearance as a template.

Wellness Facilities

A health club and a clinical setting place different demands on equipment, services and staff movement. IHF Health Club | Christchurch by Life Fitness and Te Whatu Ora, Timaru Hospital by DLA Architects illustrate the different settings served by wellness facilities. For a new build or fit-out, identify equipment clearances and maintenance access early, and check that service routes will not cross public areas unnecessarily.

What belongs in a wellness facility brief?

Record the activities, expected occupancy, equipment and storage needs before room sizes are fixed. Include staff requirements and accessible routes so they are part of the initial plan.

How can a design provide acoustic privacy?

Identify where quiet conversations or treatment take place, then separate those rooms from noisier activities. Check door positions and waiting areas so people are not left within earshot of private discussions.

What should be checked before a fit-out?

Have the design team assess the existing structure, building services, fire safety and accessibility against the proposed use. Confirm consent requirements before work begins, especially if the use of the building will change.
