Hypothesis

Students often spend extended periods sitting for study or work, leading to insufficient physical activity. Introducing light exercise facilities in these settings could enhance their physical and mental well-being.
Vital Vibes naturally integrates light activity into students’ busy routines, reducing the health risks of prolonged sitting while improving focus and overall performance.

• Why
  According to reports, physical inactivity among students is often driven by time constraints and a lack of accessible options for exercise, leading to negative impacts on their health, including an increased risk of obesity and related issues. Addressing this gap is essential to fostering a healthier and more balanced student lifestyle.

• How

By incorporating movement opportunities shown in digital platform or visual interaction into everyday spaces, like library or architecture studio, students can engage in physical activity naturally, without the need for structured workouts. These spaces will seamlessly blend light physical activity into academic life, promoting walking, stretching, and social interaction during breaks.

• What

The Design integrates indoor and outdoor spaces to promote physical activity seamlessly within students’ daily routines. By leveraging accessible facilities like treadmill desks, study bikes, and light exercise zones, both inside and outside campus buildings, students can engage in short bursts of activity without needing to visit a formal gym.

• So What

The design interventions result in improved physical and mental well-being, enhanced focus and performance, and the establishment of a scalable model for integrating health-focused environments into daily routines.
