The intervention area is located in a privileged area, in direct communication with the City Park. The process object is based on personalized training with the permanent assistance of a personal trainer who monitors, establishes goals, verifies and quantifies the exercises performed with great accuracy, in order to obtain a better result/performance. Thus, the concept relies above all on the accuracy and on the elements that give it veracity, achieved mainly from electronic devices in which “feedback” is the essential element supporting the machine, in measuring movement patterns and their correction to obtain the desired result. In the project, the concept application translates from the physical, programmatic and functional structure of the spaces to the way in which the machines and materials used are organized, accomplished in an environment in which “silver” (distended aluminum mesh) is the conductive material applied to the “circuit”.
