La Factory is a sprawling new fitness center located in Moussy-le-Neuf, a commune situated in north-central France. The multifaceted space is set across a former carpentry and metal-working factory and was converted into an impressive leisure center by Agence Costa. Now a pillar of its suburban community, La Factory boasts a number of facilities in one singular, unified space that will likely make any other fitness center you've toured seem less impressive.
In addition to its gym and fitness equipment, the space includes a restaurant, a fitness center, a laser game, two bars, a bowling alley and a billiards room. The redesign was planned with the hope to preserve the spirit of the factory and its industrial design language.
