PREFACE
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
The release of the body from the tension and strain of work may be understood as a
natural physical response to fatigue. Yet relaxation as a regulated right of human labour in the Western
world emerged only in the nineteenth century, and ever since has been repeatedly checked by anxieties
about mass leisure and by the dynamics of economic growth.
Scientists began to understand the working body as a ‘motor’ with a measurable capacity
for work and the need for regularly spaced rest. Work scientists like Angelo Mosso believed that output
could be optimized if exhaustion was avoided. Overwork reduced longevity, decreased fertility, stunted
the growth of youth, produced insomnia and nervousness , and encouraged alcoholism and torpor.
Efficiency in the human motor required daily and weekly rest breaks and even regularly spaced rests
within the workday.
Since the 1970s, complex economic and social trends have reversed the historical trend
toward increased leisure time. Increased speed of communications and transport along with the rise of
global competition has created the 24-hour economy and, with it, work at all hours. Economic maximizing
and consumerism have induced workers not only to opt for overtime but to choose timesaving devices to
aid in their leisure. This has meant a saturation of free time with leisure goods and their maintenance.
INTRODUCTION
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
Recreation or fun is the expenditure of time in a manner designed for
therapeutic refreshment of one's body or mind. While leisure is more likely a form of entertainment or sleep,
recreation is active for the participant but in a refreshing and diverting manner. A time in which individuals
are not compelled to do anything, and are free to choose to relax or to take part in a leisure activity. Leisure
has important social functions, including relief from the demands and restrictions of work.
Most people enjoy socializing with friends for dinner or a drink after a
hard day at work. For many young people, having a regular night out a week is a normal part of their free
time, whether it is joining friends for a drink in a pub, dining out in a restaurant, watching a film, playing
video games or dancing at a club.
Types of leisure
Active leisure activities involve the exertion of physical or mental
energy. Low-impact physical activities include walking and yoga, which expend little energy and have little
contact or competition. High-impact activities such as kick-boxing and football consume much energy and
are competitive. Some active leisure activities involve almost no physical activity, but do require a
substantial mental effort, such as playing chess or painting a picture. Active leisure and recreation overlap
significantly.
Passive leisure activities are those in which a person does not exert
any significant physical or mental energy, such as going to the cinema, watching television, or gambling on
slot machines. Some leisure experts discourage these types of leisure activity, on the grounds that they do
not provide the benefits offered by active leisure activities. For example, acting in a community drama (an
active leisure activity) could build a person's skills or self-confidence. Nevertheless, passive leisure activities
are a good way of relaxing for many people.
AIMS & OBJECTIVES
To understand the behavior pattern of users.
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
To find out the aspiration and desires of users.
To chalk out requirements considering the behavioral aspects along with functional aspects.
To identify the appropriate environment for individual activities.
To design a recreational club having all necessary requirements and to create an appropriate user
movement.
SCOPE
The project is to be developed as a fun club comprising recreational
along with the leisure facilities. The art and craft emporium with exhibition and workshops will be the one of
the major attractions of the club. The catchment area of complex will include all coherence and harmony in
overall development exists.
LIMITATIONS
Inferences are taken considering the behaviour pattern of the majority of people.
Interior of only selected spaces will be dealt with.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Every city has the power to generate a surplus of amenities. But we find
that in bigger cities amenities are is inversely proportional to the true happiness of people. The
lifestyle is forcely surrounded by in the form of congested trafficway,more congested
apartments,population,noise etc.
Under these circumstances ,to get rid off from tension there
should be some provision of recreation where people of all the age groups come and enjoy the life
in different ways and feel relaxed for sometime. Therefore there should be a provision of activities
for all different age group people like swimming,tennis,gymnasium and sauna-bath for
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
youngsters,billiards,cards,chess gathering space,auditorium fpr all age group,aquarium,sand
mountain,slipping slides,see-saw etc. for children.
Recreation club is a club, developed with a commitment to fun
and fitness for the entire family and offers an immense range of activities. It can also be further
explained as:
A centre as a social expression, community need, concentrates activities, meaningful spaces, a
neighborhood focus and urban excitement.
The club provides a platform for interaction, relaxation and amusement.
It offers a junction for tourism, sports and cultural development.
METHODOLOGY
1. First – Data from literature regarding behavioural aspect of the buildings was collected. This data
was synthesized to select the aspects which could govern inter-relationship of various activities in
a club building.
2. Case studies were analysed in the light of behavioural ‘aspects’, by means of observation and
users survey.
3. Inferences were drawn from the case-studies about behavioural pattern of users and their
expactations from the space were analysed. Such inferences were used to chalk-out
‘requirements’ which incorporated behavioural aspects along with functional aspects.
4. Vsrious techniques were explored from literature for producing the desired psychology effect in a
space.
5. Climatological data were gathered and analysed

THEME-
USER MOVEMENT
Act or process of moving from one place to another
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
It can be directional, irregular or multidirectional.
Need and availability at different levels is the main cause of movement.
The various spaces interlinked within the building are approached through this movement
Movement is related to energy, so to conserve energy there must be deliberate effort to arrange
the various interlinking spaces, to achieve minimum movement.
User-centered design is a project approach that puts the
intended users of a site at the centre of its design and development. It does this by talking directly
to the user at key points in the project to make sure the site will deliver upon their requirements.
The stages are carried out in an iterative fashion, with the cycle
being repeated until the project's usability objectives have been attained. This makes it critical that
the participants in these methods accurately reflect the profile of your actual users.The essential
activities in a user-centered design project:
Requirements gathering - Understanding and specifying the context of use.
Requirements specification - Specifying the user and organizational requirements.
Design - Producing designs and prototypes.
Evaluation - Carrying out user-based assessment of the site.
"The chief difference from other interface design philosophies is
that user-centered design tries to structure a user interface around how people naturally work,
rather than requiring users to learn how the interface works."
The designing of recreation club is not merely a combination of
spaces on the basis of function. It is much more than that. The designing depends on behavior
pattern, psychological aspects as to how people move, how they visualize things, the degree of
privacy they require and much more.

PATTERNS OF MOVEMENT
Defined movement
Random movement
Mixed movement
Stable movement
1.Defined movement
This is the movement with a direction and a defined purpose. This is further divided into :
a) Multi- activity movement :
Movement has various directions, but every approach is purposeful.
b) Mono- activity movement :
It restricts to only one activity and a particular direction.
2.Random movement
This is the movement with no direction. It may or may not have any purpose. This is further
divided into:
a) Movement with a purpose :
Movement has no fixed direction, but still it has a well defined purpose.
b) Movement without a purpose:
It is also known as leisure movement. It has no direction and no purpose.
3.Mixed movement
This movement is the mixture of above two movements. This is further divided into:
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
a) Random followed by defined movement :
At first, movement is defined with a direction but after fulfilling its purpose, it becomes random.
b) Defined followed by random movement:
At first, the movement is random and without direction but after finding it’s destination, it becomes
defined.
4.Stable movement
The person remains stable with occasional movement to / from its destination.
Further categorization:
a) Within the building - Pedestrian movement
b) Outside the building - Both Pedestrian and vehicular movement
VARIOUS ASPECTS FOR MOVEMENT STUDY:
1.Psychological Aspects
2.Visual Aspects
3.Physical Aspects
1.Psychological Aspects
Psychology of human being affects the movement.
A designer controls the movement of a person in a building by effectively studying the psychology
of human being.
2. Visual Aspects
Visibility is an important measure for a person while moving.
It plays its role both in interiors as well as exterior designing.
Landscape and landmarks in case of exterior and lights and textures in case of interior.
3. Physical Aspects
A designer controls the movement of the users, keeping in mind the physical aspects.
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
Also focuses on the degree of privacy, the user requires.
Proper arrangement of spaces for different activities.
ADVANTAGES
Some of the advantages of Movement oriented design are :
Free flow functioning of all activities,
Well organized spaces,
Put off overcrowding,
Energy saving,
Orderly parking
SPACE RELATIONSHIP:
1.Functional Space – Activity and administrative areas.
2.Circulation Space – Lobbies and corridors.
3.Landscape Spaces – Sit outs, gardens, lawn.
4.Service Space – Horizontal and vertical ducts

CLASSIFICATION
The classification of activities is done with respect to the
activities held inside the main building i.e., internal and the activities to be held outside the main
building i.e., external.
The further classification of internal activities is done as the
activities performed by and activities performed by the young / adult people, who is again parted as
the activities for males and activities for females.
This classification is also same for the external activities, which
is fractioned among kids and young people and is further parted between males and females.
FLOOR WISE DISTRIBUTION OF SPACES
Ground Floor - Noisy & Dynamic Activities
First Floor - Silent Activities
First & Second Floor - General Activities (Mixed)
Second Floor - Lodging Facility
Third Floor - Banquet Hall
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
The floor wise distribution of spaces can also be done in order to
achieve proper zoning. This can be done as providing noisy and dynamic activities at a single floor
suppose ground floor, keeping it away from the silence zone such as library and conference room,
etc. The placement of general activities, lodging facilities and banquet can be also done in
accordance with zoning concept.

relaxation, waiting and gossiping.
Aspiration- 60 % visitors desires lawn should be surrounded through hedges, while
40% desires personalized corners. Lawn space should preferably not be open to clear
vision from the site entrance.
Analysis-
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
Badminton Hall :- Used by female of the age between 12-20 years and male of the group
between 15-45 years. Spectator’s response encourages player’s
participation.
Aspiration - 75 % (max female), desire indoor court, 25 % desire outdoor court.

males above 16 years.
Aspiration- Players don’t want the viewers to create any disturbance, and the
viewers don’t want the vision disrupted.
Analysis- To avoid the vision obstrustructions of viewers and to avoid the traffic
congestion near the billiard tables, some options for seating
arrangements shall be provided.
ZONING CONCEPT
Zoning depends upon the use of the particular area in a building.
A proper zoning can lead to disperse the crowd at the initial and also plays an important role in
avoiding overcrowding at certain areas in a building.
It can begin with an appropriate location of parking, so the
visitors have to move less after parking their vehicles. The multipurpose hall is kept apart from the
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
rest of the activity zones to allow free circulation on special occasions, without disturbing the rest
of the movement.
The main zone houses all the activities with the restaurant, an
inviting zone, at easy distance from all activity areas. Lawn area is provided near the children’s
play area for child safety and supervision. It is divided into small lots, one between ladies activity
zone and other activity zones.
The open air theatre zone and multipurpose hall zone are kept
as far as possible to avoid noise intermixing and disturbances.
The swimming pool zone is given a slight secluded corner to
ensure privacy.
PLANNING CONCEPT
Planning: The planning should be the combination of both compactness and openness.
Public yet private: waiting lounge, restaurant, lawn are the places where many groups are formed.
These groups are formed of two or more than two people. In these groups some people desire
segregation from other groups. In other words, people want a personal space in which they can
accommodate themselves.
Circulation routes: a recreation club brings a sense of joy, fitness and well being. The planning has
to extend to the whole site area. For breaking the visual fatigue, relaxation to the eye, gossiping
and coolness these areas play a major role.

RECOMMENDATION:-
Functional and aestheticdesign consideration have to respect
well motivated requirement of production. Approach behind a recreational club is well connected
with the area which it wants to serve and is easily approachable. The site should be free from
noise so that person feel relax. Thus an aesthetically designed building with neat and pollution
free atmosphere and well connected site with sufficient capacity are of the important factor which
enter into the archietect’s concept of recreational club.
Functional & psychological aspects:-
Entrance-
The entrance lobby is quit spacious and serves its purpose very
effectively staircase and seating area in lobby is in such a way that are of
circulation is not disturded.
Billiards hall-
Billiards hall creats good environment for billiards playing
members. On one wall score board is hung and on its opposite side all along the
wall spectators stands are arranged.
Three billiards tables are placed in the middle in a row and on
other side spectators stands are arranged outside 6ft. area and seats should be
raised on a dais.
Table tennis room-
Tables for T.T very considerably in size but plan allow for full
size tables 9ft. by 5ft. with a space atleast 5ft.between tables side by side and
10ft. between two ends. These spaces may be increased considerably for
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
matches play. Special care should be taken to provide adequate lighting both for
day and night play.
Reading room-
The reading room is large with capacity of 50-55 persons. Book
stand and newspaper stands are arranged on one wall side and chair placed
perpendicular to it in a row arranged back to back. A person when enters into the
reading room must get a quite and reading atmosphere on his mind.reading room
is well lighted/illuminated by florescent tube-lights and reader does not face any
problem in searching book from stand or selves. Here all types of books and
newspapers like current affair magazine, political magazines, sports magazines,
fashion magazines , children’s comics etc. are available for readers. Thus
reading room is serving both functional and psychological purpose effectively.
Lawn tennis-
Various services such as grass, asphalts or patent hard material
are suitable. The standard side of the court is 78ft. long by 36ft.wide to which
must be added, as room-bacle, atleast 21ft. each end and 12ft.at sides. The
surrounding are often reduced, except for special courts, where two courts are
placed together in public recreation grounds. It is generally allowed 120ft. length,
with 6ft. to 10ft. between courts need orientation to avoid the sun shine in
player’s eyes, north-east to south-west for the main axis is the best aspects for
general purposes. Courts should be enclosed with galvlnise wire fencing 10 ft. to
12ft.
Swimming poll-
For general public use the minimum lengthof swimming pool
should be 60ft. for high diving a depth atleast 14 preferably 15ft. is necessary
over the whole of an area extending 25ft. horizontally from a point immediately
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT

below the end of the highest board. The flat generally considered the minimum
water depth in which races can take place. The highest diving stage should not
exceed twice the depth of water. The edge of the both or take off should not be
more than 18 in.above the water level. The dimension of 4ft.given should be
considered as the greatest permissible for shallow ends. The arrangement for
bathrooms should also be considered, five bathrooms are there separately for
men and women along with changing room.
Discotheques-
The commercial aim of disco is to increase the interaction of the
revenue earning function and to provide a socializing ambiance in which visitors
can relax and indulge in group identification. The scale of permiss range from the
adapted small hall or pub to the popular with space for small 1000 people. The
technical equipment for lighting and sounding are continuously being improved
lighting of discos is characterized by the rotating mirrored spheres and pulsating
strobe lighting. With in dance area the cont of lighting and sound which combine
to create mood will be carried cut by the disc jockey. The lighting-sports, flood,
colour filtered etc. can be synchronised with the sound so that by frequency
banding, light becomes the analogue of the music to give an audio-visual
experience. The sound system may consist of two disc tables, space for strong
disc, a control panel. The quality of cassettes and compact disc is improving,and
where there is vibration or movement these may be preferred. The order of
stereophone speakers, and the space necessary for their accommodation in the
ceiling or against a wall should be identified. Now a days discotheques are
operated in conjunction with a bar, restaurant or cabaret and have live music as
part of the evening. The location of sitting should allow easy access. Clear
visibility for the front of the house and avoidance of conflict with adjoining
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
premises. The location of the console in relation to dance floor is important.the
full view of the dance floor should be available to the disc jockey.
For the young in decades,the recreation to orthodox
ballroom dancing identified in the discotheque venues, became a powerful
source. But the dance pattern suggest that outside the ballroom contemporary
social dancing is not only an opportunity for individual display to the partner or
the group, but also the self expression of free from dancing.
Bowling alley-
The four lane bowling alley is bordered by white niches in a blue
wall. Lighting below helps to bring out colourful effects. An undulating metal wall lies just
outside the entrance to the bowling alley. A mirror next to the entrance create a ripple –
like effect of metal. A wooden bench is provide to allow bowling members to sit
comfortably and change their shoes and is hidden from direct view. Bottom lighting helps
todefine the bowling lanes and add brilliance to the room.

ADVANCED STUDIES-
RELEVANCE OF ELECTIVES
Land and interior design were the two areas of advanced studies chosen by the author.
Landscape
A club building is very different from other buildings in the sense
that it does not offer any functional service in the prevalent sense of the word. What it
offers instead is a sense of joy fitness and well being. One has to plan experience and
expections while planning a club building. While planning the user psychological state.
One cannot stop with a small area called the built mass that is the building, for it consists
only a part of the whole experience of the user. The planning has then to be extended to
the whole site area.
Further Indian climate is suitable for outdoor planning. The club
has more attendance during evenings and members have a tendancy to enjoy outdoor
surroundings. That is why has given specific stress in landscape detailing and tried to
integrate it with the built mass as far as possible.
Interior design
The reason for choosing interior design as a topic of advanced
studies arise from the same philosophy that only provision of any facility is not sufficient
while planning a club building. What is more important instead of what type of
atmosphere that activity and the area assigned to it produces.
Though the placement of various areas had already explorer this
aspect of visual connection between two areas nevertheless while designing the interior,
aesthetical considerations were sole deciding factors sometimes.
RECREATION CLUB; COSIDERING USER MOVEMENT
7676
OVERALL FINDING AND PROPOSALS
Interior of Restaurant
The following guideline are followed to make environment of restaurant make delightful and
purposeful:
I. Every table gives a close view of either dancing flour or outside surroundings.
II. French window increases the visual area and brings nature more closer.
III. Artificial and natural plants are given in the restaurant to create the inter-penetration of
nature inside the hall.
IV. To create a royal impression of restaurant by providing innovative artistic features, colour,
texture and lighting.
V. Lighting- there are dim light in the restaurant living area to reduce the harshness of features
and it should be orange brown tone.
VI. The food served should look delectable, fortunately most food item fall in orange brown
category and so look fine under the dim brown lights meant for people.
VII. Contrast colour is used insight the restaurant to create dramatic effect.
VIII. Smooth texture is used by large size of glazed opening and plain plastering with
combination of cool and hot colours.
Landscaping of children’s playground
All equipment should contribute to the healthy growth and recreational enjoyment of the
child, so that he learns to coordinate, cooperate, compete, create, enjoy and acquire
confidence, playing equipment should-
I. Develop strength ability, coordination, balance and courage.
II. Stimulate the child to learn social skills of sharing and playing with others and to compete in
a spirit of fair play.
III. Encourage each child to be creative and have play experience which are meaningful to
him.
IV. Assist the child in making the transition from playsuit to playground.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION:-
Beginning with the selection of the subject and theme and later,
selection of the appropriate site the project involved working out the challenges and problems to
be dealt with in a logical manner.
In this project, the major challenge was to work out the
modalities of the club with its essential amenities, their functional and location significance after
conducting the relevant literature and case studies and late to integrate the project development
with the essence of the theme to make the club a dynamic platform for wholesome social activity
without tempering with the traditional purpose of the club.
Recreational club is meant for public enjoyment and relaxation.
Recreational club proposed is supposed to be a tool to entertain the members and visitors.
Greatcare should be taken regarding each and every aspects. Also the choice of material used
for both external and internal finishers has been carefully controlled. The use of colour has been
carefully modulated internally as well as externally throughout it should have sober and peaceful
touch of feeling. The building is designed on the theme of openness. Great attention has been
paid to the needs of those who will come to the club as well as those who will work in it terms of
their physical and psychological well being.
Looking back this thesis project involved lot of energy and time.
At times it appeared quite grueling, but on the whole it has been a wonderful experience.
