Experiences

 

Visits to recreation centres tend to be unpredictable experiences. Even if you manage to eliminate the professional view, you are never completely sure of what to expect next. In most cases, you are dealing with the clichéd repetition of well-known patterns as platforms for displays of muscles. Design and equipment are mostly limited to a sequence of awkward concepts.

 

Unwillingly, you feel contempt for or at least disappointment with contemporary society and the trends in everyday design, often stretching the limits of common sense. However, circumstances can change, if there is enough will and also knowledge, which occurs seldom enough.
