Considering changing sports habits after the pandemic and making it easier to access needs due to the changing economy, as a market demand, our main motivation was to provide a functional experience suitable for multiple uses with minimum material types and simple production methods.

We wanted to achieve a strong and bold form by using the angular shape of the easy-to-produce box profile. This also provides strong structural integrity. While this sustainable technique allows us to obtain economical products, it also promotes a simple aesthetic.

For-Fit has stations that allow 15 different exercises with the user’s weight. It is designed to focus on calisthenic and cross-fit training outdoors, either individually or as a group. Each product build includes a small description plate with interface graphics showing how people can exercise with the product.

Most people or municipalities have limited budgets for premium class expensive outdoor exercise equipment and gym membership costs. For-Fit aims to solve this problem by using standard materials and simple production techniques, while providing versatile use with a design language that complements the function.

Budero’s design approach always demands more from its staff. Even if we are making a product that is very simple and often made by different people, we think about what extra value we can add to it.

In doing so, we constantly simplify operations. In-office communication, communication with customers, business perspective, etc. We believe it should be lean. Because we believe that a correct design is achieved by simplifying, not adding.
