Husband-and-wife design duo Alberto Biagetti and Laura Baldassari experimented with the aesthetics of vintage gym equipment for their latest collection, titled 'Body Building.'

The 10-piece collection is up-to-par with the couple's luxury aesthetic, but the gym inspiration adds a playful spin to it. The range includes items like a [glamorous punching bag stool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/equipt-movement), a crystal coffee table supported by geometric dumbbells and a leather bench designed to resemble a pommel horse.

The Body Building collection is perfect for those for whom the gym is like a second home, but it's also light-hearted enough for people who don't exercise regularly. The furniture itself doesn't have any health benefits like those of, say, a standing desk, but it's a luxurious way to keep fitness top-of-mind, even while at home.
