Interior Design. Interior design is to be an integral
part of the facility's architectural design, finish schedule and
specifications for built-in and collateral furniture/fixtures and
equipment (FF&E). Interior design specification should provide a
cohesive, visual appearance and complement the overall facility's
architectural design. For example, lockers should be specified
to coordinate with each of the locker room's finish schedule.
Exercise mats should be specified to coordinate with the gym's
court stripping and padded cushion wall panels. The finish/
upholstery of the physical fitness equipment should be
coordinated with the rubber flooring and/or carpeting. Wall
graphics, decorative suspended acoustical panel/banners are
encouraged to provide visual interest and to help direct patrons
throughout the facility by color zones and/or graphic designs.
Interior design specifications should provide a bright, cheerful,
contemporary facility with durable, commercial quality furniture,
fixtures, and equipment that meet local safety and fire building
codes. FF&E should be specified to withstand heavy commercial
use, body perspiration and odors associated with all physical
conditioning facilities.
