Entry Description

"AIR"

Hyex Kaihin-Makuhari introduces "Altitude Training in the City," enhancing athletic performance through hypoxic training. By lowering oxygen levels while maintaining normal air pressure, this method strengthens cardiopulmonary function and oxygen transport.

We designed the "air" itself to support performance. Visitors enter through a sky-blue space into a mirrored warm-up area with a blue open ceiling. The Athlete Room, bathed in red, symbolizes oxygen-rich blood, while the VR Training Room offers an immersive workout. Through this space, we help people feel and perform "High."
