"Workout gear is almost always clunky and unsightly; gray equipment haphazardly crammed into a basement room that only just checks the box when it comes to an apartment building's list of promoted amenities. Mirrored walls jarringly cut across cheesy cityscape or jungle scene murals and rubber mat flooring. Bad EDM music pulsates at full volume. With function superseding form, aesthetics always seem to be an afterthought."
"Designed by Italian architect Giulia Foscari for heritage furniture brand Cassina in partnership with premium gym equipment producer Technogym the compact system presents as a sleekly configured, aqua blue ombre-finished cabinet, possibly staged in a swanky seaside hotel suite. The eight-sided monolith stands alone as a singular statement piece furnishing one acquired at a gallery but when opened, reveals its contents: a comprehensive home gym."
"Inside, there are adjustable 4 to 55 pound Technogym Connected Dumbbells and a 32-inch screen cued to Technogym's app programmed with a full suite of guided workouts. There are also kettlebells, resistance bands, mobility sticks, mats, jump ropes, and a full-length mirror. Ottagono has all the essentials for a comprehensive workout. Ensuring seamless integration, Cassina also included a smartphone connecting port for even more customization."
