Seattle Accelerate

Situated across from Key Arena at the vibrant Seattle Center, Accelerate’s new gym embodies a bold vision of collective strength and dynamic training. Tasked with creating a space that champions team-oriented workouts, the design integrates striking graphics and a powerful palette of black and yellow, harmonized with charred ‘yakisugi’ siding that adds a contemporary edge.

Upon entering, a custom reception desk welcomes athletes, setting the stage for a community-driven experience. A sleek, steel-framed upholstered bench invites social interactions, fostering a sense of camaraderie before and after classes. Central to the workout area is an impressive 80-foot-long turf strip, meticulously designed for stretching, sprints, and sled pushes, allowing for varied training modalities.

Suspended above this athletic arena, bespoke light fixtures echo the essence of the Accelerate brand, illuminating the space with a warm glow. Expansive wall-to-wall mirrors invite natural light to cascade deep into the gym, enhancing visibility and encouraging athletes to refine their form and technique. This innovative environment not only reflects the spirit of the Accelerate philosophy but also inspires a transformative journey toward personal and athletic excellence.
