the third space

The Third Space is London's Premier Health and Fitness Club spread over 40,000sq ft in the heart of Soho, and was recently voted "the club with the most state of the art facilities" by Time Out magazine.

Project Brief

The Third Space wanted to replace their existing site with a fresh new look that re-enforced their brand identity and showcased their award winning facilities.

In addition, the Members Only section had to interact with their club management system (Gladstone's MRM Plus.2) to allow members to book classes online and view and update details related to their membership to The Third Space.

The site had to be entirely content managed to give department heads the ability to change and update the site as necessary.

Our Solution

We built a bespoke solution based on our own Engage Content Management System (CMS) that allows office staff at The Third Space complete control over their site.

Working closely with Gladstone MRM - we built a completely intuitive interface to facilitate online class bookings which is now responsible for over 80% of member bookings.

We enlisted the services of Eye Revolution - specialists in 360o photography to shoot HDR panoramas which we would then use to build a jaw-dropping virtual tour.

In 2009 - Phase 2 of the project saw us develop a members only service called "The Vault". This service provides members and club staff an online fitness portal that features tools like fitness tracking, online fitness programmes with video tutorials and an online "fitness wall".

We were also commissioned to build a dedicated iPhone application for The Third Space which would allow their members to view a real time class timetable and book into classes directly from the phone.
