Initial Research and ideas

Initial considerations for the final concept included protein smoothies, a foldable treadmill, a gym couch, and a combination of home décor and the gym. I really liked the notion of home decor and the gym, so I pursued it and created a final product concept on paper, but I wasn't satisfied with it. I chose to construct something else in the same vein.

Initial sketches/prototypes

At first, I thought of this as merely a plant stand, but after speaking with individuals and professionals, I changed my mind and began to refer to it as a fitness stand. You can also use it to display other types of home décor in addition to plants.
