Wellness Design Consultants for Gyms, Spas and Wellness Amenities

Biofit helps developers, hotel owners, operators and design teams create commercially credible, visually distinctive wellness spaces — from early-stage planning and concept development through to interior design, equipment specification and pre-opening support.

Specialist support for wellness spaces that need to work commercially, aesthetically & operationally

We work on gyms, spas, recovery areas and wider wellness amenities across hotels, residential developments, student living, workplace and mixed-use projects.

Some clients come to us at the earliest stage, when they need help defining the right concept, space mix and level of ambition.

Others appoint us later, when they need a specialist partner to shape the interior design, coordinate equipment and guide the project toward opening.

our ethos

From early questions to fully developed spaces

Some projects begin with uncertainty: how much space should be allocated, what should be included, how premium should the offer be, and what will make it stand out in the market.

Other projects already have a clear brief and need specialist design input to turn it into a compelling, buildable environment.

Biofit works across both scenarios. We can help define the right brief at the front end, or step in as a specialist design consultant when the project is ready to move forward.

why biofit

Why clients work with Biofit

Specialist focus on wellness spaces rather than general interiors

Experience across gyms, spas, recovery and wider amenity offers

Ability to support both strategy and design

Independent, equipment-agnostic approach

Strong fit with hotels, residential, campus and mixed-use projects

Flexible collaboration with owners, developers, architects and operators

strategy + design

Strategic advisory + design expertise

We help clients answer early questions around feasibility, benchmarking, user profile and space allocation, but we also bring strong design thinking to the project — shaping layouts, atmosphere, material direction and the overall user experience.

We are also independent and equipment-agnostic. That means our recommendations are guided by the concept, budget, operational ambition and project context, rather than by a single supplier catalogue.

Two ways to engage Biofit

Choose the engagement model that best fits your project scale and delivery team.

Specialist Advisory (Sub-Consultant)


Ideal when an architect and interior design team are already appointed. We provide gym and spa expertise across planning, capacity, layouts and technical specification—plus design-integration reviews—so functional requirements are embedded early and delivered cleanly through the wider team.

Best for: large-scale hospitality, mixed-use, and developer-led projects.

Full Scope (Including Interior Design)


Ideal for smaller projects or when you want a single point of responsibility. We deliver gym and spa concept through interior design and technical documentation, including finishes, FF&E and coordination support—ensuring the experience, operations and buildability align from concept to handover.

Best for: boutique hotels, private members’ clubs, residential amenities, and compact wellness facilities.

frequently asked questions

  • Biofit supports developers, hotel owners and operators with gym and spa planning, concept development, equipment and technical specification, and pre-opening advisory—either as a specialist consultant alongside an appointed design team, or as a full-service designer on smaller projects.

  • Yes. On larger projects, we often support the architect / lead consultant / interior designer with functional planning, equipment layouts, capacity analysis, and design-integration review—without delivering the interior design package.

  • Depending on scope, deliverables can include: concept & benchmarking, capacity/utilisation study, functional zoning + equipment layouts, equipment lists and specifications (including vendor shortlists), design review / coordination comments, and preliminary operational guidelines.

  • Yes. We can advise on operating models (in-house vs third party), preliminary staffing/service levels, guest journey, and can support operator selection where required.

  • Typically: General Arrangement (GA) plans (and any early interior layouts if available), target market/positioning, intended operating model, area schedules, any existing MEP constraints, and budget/programme parameters.
