Design indicators for women’s wellness centers: Research highlights the need for environmental design indicators that improve accessibility and inclusivity in diverse socioeconomic neighborhoods, supporting women’s wellness comprehensively. Effective gym design should prioritize accessibility, anti-harassment policies, supportive staff training, and focus on health benefits beyond appearance to empower women physically, mentally, and emotionally. paper would combine architectural, social, and health perspectives to propose design strategies that holistically empower women through spatial interventions in fitness environments.
