Digital Design
As it is a gymnasium, its interior design is very simple. However, the lockers were originally designed to just fit necessities such as phones, wallets and keys. However, homeless people would not be able to fit their belongings in such spaces, since most of them carry a lot of things with them (e.g. a supermarket trolley filled with their belongings). Moreover, the shower facility would also not be an ideal place for them. We have talked to some homeless people, and we understood that they are shy, because of us being very ignorant and they feel depressed. So, shower facilities like those in an ordinary gym would not be ideal.
Nevertheless, we think it is still going to be totally fine to start with those kinds of facilities. However, ideally we would rent a building that would have some space. (this is going to be our future goal, but the gymnasium will be used for now because it will be cheaper.
Final Location
Pavelló de la Mar Bella
We have chosen this area because it has the perfect location for our project. It is neither too far, nor too close to the city centre. The Mar Bella centre has the lowest inflow of visitors/clients on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So, we are going to contact the sport center and offer to rent this space exclusively on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The reason it is going to work because the sport center is not making money on Tuesdays and Thursdays; whereas we will be paying for rent and utilities. Thus, the sport facility will be making profit.

We will be doing it twice a week. And we chose those 2 days - Tuesday and Thursday because it has the lowest rate of people. (the graph shown above shows that there is almost nobody).
