Discription
The Takeoff, an MMA training center, breathes new life into Seletar's historic airport through adaptive reuse. This dynamic space reimagines the legacy of the terminal, transforming it into a symbol of endurance, recovery, and resilience for both athletes and the building itself.
Angular forms, inspired by the chaotic yet controlled nature of MMA, create a spatial rhythm that mirrors the sport's quick-paced flow. Distinct zones for training, recovery, and community foster a holistic approach to athletic development. Raw, authentic materials evoke a sense of grounding and strength, echoing the intensity of the training environment. The Takeoff is not just a gym; it's a testament to the power of transformation and the enduring spirit of both mixed martial arts and architecture.
