Next to the main chill area, a workshop room has also been considered, which can also serve as a secondary meeting room. The chosen finishes are low-maintenance and environmentally friendly. The use of natural elements such as stone, timber, and plants is the project's focus to bring the senseofconnectionwithnature.

The design was carefully conceived by the architect to comfortably accommodate up to four judges and a few guests. Its glass façade and sliding doors not only facilitate efficient ventilation but also allow ample natural light to filter in. Additionally, there is a small smoking area on the sides, featuring a beautiful vertical garden. The colour scheme, incorporating shades of grey and red, was selected to mirror the club's colours and to make the structure a prominent design element,emphasizingitwiththestrikingredhue.
