Appreciations towards CROX for providing the following description:

B-monster，来自纽约潮流前沿的格斗系健身俱乐部，引领着“暗黑拳击”这样一个热辣新鲜的话题，抵达上海保利时光里。毋庸置疑，B-monster做为全球健身行业的领先者，“绝不妥协”、“火力燃烧”就是它的代名词。CROX闊合以〝异梦洞天〞的创作概念为健身俱乐部于中国第一家店赋予全新的品牌形象，也为拳击爱好者打造出一个极具富有戏剧性的运动空间。

B-monster, a boxing studio from the forefront of New York’s trendy, arrived at Poly Time in Shanghai while leading a hot topic of “Dark Boxing”. Undoubtedly, B-monster is the leader in the global fitness industry and “never compromise” and “fire burning” are its pronouns. CROX has created a brand-new brand image for the first fitness club in China with the creative concept of B-monster, and also created a dramatic sports space for boxing enthusiasts.

▼空间一览，overall view of the space

CROX闊合设计的出发点是凿开都市水泥丛林的厚墙，让身心得以在黑暗中释放，把格斗运动塑造成一个充满仪式感的空间序列——异地洞穴、火红更衣间、盗梦操房，三个空间连结成完整沉境式体验。B-monster上海概念店外观像个偌大的水泥块，在水泥块上凿开大小不一的裂口，不仅丰富了造型，更重要的是能打破隔离，巧妙地把人与墙距离拉近，凿开的裂口入可以提供休息、体验、展示等功能。而最大的破洞即为大门，象征探险的入口。

The starting point of CROX design is to cut through thick walls of urban concrete jungle so that the body and mind can be free in the darkness, and to shape fighting movement into a space sequence full of ceremonial feelings – exotic cave, red dressing room and inception gymnasium. The three spaces are linked into a complete immersive experience. B-monster Shanghai concept store looks like a huge cement block. It cuts cracks of different sizes on the cement block, which not only enriches the shape, but more importantly, it can break the isolation and cleverly narrow the distance between visitors and walls. The opening of the cracks can provide functions such as rest, experience, and display. The biggest crack is the gate, symbolizing the entrance to exploration.

体验者一旦踏入，宛如置身于万年前的原始洞穴LASCAUX CAVE，藉由收藏纽约街头涂鸦艺术家Alexander Kaletski的涂鸦作品，呼应最早有记录人类绘画文明的起源地，延续古今形成新的FREESTYLE，既摩登又原始的海派交融，引领着人们不断往前迈进，直达洞穴的转弯处，此时一个阳光的中庭映入眼帘，带来不一样的体验。伴随着心中的期待，体验者走进泛着星星之火般的红色试衣间，逐渐提升的兴奋感开始蔓延，空气中充满了躁动的神秘。

Once visitor enters, he/she may feel like stepping into an original cave LASCAUX CAVE existed thousands of years ago. By collecting the graffiti works of New York street graffiti artist Alexander Kaletski, it echoes the earliest place recording the origin of painting civilization and forms a new FREESTYLE from ancient to modern times. It is a modern and primitive blend of Shanghai style, leading people to move forward, straight to the corner of the cave, at this time a sunny atrium leap to the eyes and brings a different experience. With expectations in mind, visitors walk into the red dressing room with sparks of fire, and the rising excitement spreads. The air is full of restless mystery.

CROX闊合将操房打造成了每一个人的舞台——偌大的练习场上空是一整片动感的浮光掠影，非凡的感觉在此聚焦，配合着现场DJ打碟与炫目灯光，人们在这里为了运动而疯狂，无意识地挥动着自己的身体，跟随教练，不停移动与击打，完完全全释放出对城市深刻的情绪。

CROX has built the inception gymnasium into a stage for everyone: The sky above the large practice court is a dynamic flash of light, extraordinary feelings focus here, with live DJ playing and dazzling lights, people here for sports are crazy, unconsciously waving their bodies, following the coach to move around and hit, to completely release the in-depth emotions of the city.

上海需要创造一个可以抒发情绪、抛开思想、解决烦恼的压力释放场，鼓励都市人对抗现实的勇气。在B-monster穿过层层洞天，让你我好似无重力的飞翔在广阔的黑色天空，最后在充满音乐的场域内，像拳王阿里般——如蝴蝶般移动，像蜜蜂似的出拳。

Shanghai needs to create a stress-relief arena for expressing emotions, putting aside concerns and solving problems, and to inspire the courage of city dwellers to confront reality. Go through the caves in B-monster, let us fly gravity-free in the vast black sky, and finally in the field full of music, like Muhammad Ali – move like butterfly and punch like bee.
