Redefining Sports Medicine: Breakers Sports Clinic
In 2023, Club Studio unveiled the Breakers Sports Clinic in Valencia, Spain, setting a new standard in sports medicine facilities. With an area of 450 m², this clinic is designed to support patients in their rehabilitation journey from injury recovery to returning to physical activity and strength training, seamlessly blending medicine and sports within the same space.
Purpose and Concept
The Breakers Sports Clinic serves as a hub for both medicine, including physiotherapy and traumatology, and sports-related treatments. The clinic’s design prioritizes interaction between these disciplines to ensure patients receive high-quality care throughout their recovery process.
Transformation of Space
Situated in a commercial basement, the clinic underwent a remarkable transformation from an empty and abandoned space to a dedicated health and wellness facility. The irregular and chaotic geometry of the area, including the arrangement of columns, posed a unique challenge. To address this, the design integrates “boxes” into the existing column layout to house different treatment areas, providing a sense of order and coherence to the space.
Innovative Materials and Design Elements
Unconventional materials were employed to enhance the clinic’s aesthetic appeal while aligning with its dynamic spirit. Metal sheets in a mini-wave format cover the walls, complemented by resin flooring with a neutral tone, creating a visually striking contrast with the exposed concrete columns. The incorporation of wood and stainless steel details further enhances the space’s modern and sophisticated ambiance.
Flexibility and Adaptability
Recognizing the need for a dynamic environment, the clinic features mobile wooden panels that allow for flexible space configuration. These panels enable the seamless adjustment of treatment rooms and open areas based on the clinic’s evolving needs. Whether closed to create private treatment spaces or open to expand the main area, these panels contribute to a versatile and adaptable environment.
Evoking Brand Spirit
The spatial experience of the Breakers Sports Clinic reflects the ethos of the client’s brand, positioning the clinic as a leader in the sports-medical sector. By embracing innovation, flexibility, and aesthetic refinement, Club Studio has created a space that not only supports patient recovery but also embodies the progressive values of sports medicine in the modern era.
In conclusion, the Breakers Sports Clinic stands as a testament to the innovative fusion of medicine and sports within a dynamic and welcoming environment, paving the way for the future of sports medicine facilities worldwide.
