Y7 Studios – Bryant Park

AK Engineering teamed up with Applied Design Initiative to design the new Bryant Park hot yoga facility for Y7 Studio. Y7 offers yoga classes with choreographed hip-hop music in dark, candlelit studios, which are heated to 95 degrees using infrared technology. The 3,000 square foot Bryant Park location consists of a yoga studio, locker areas, changing rooms and a reception area. AK Engineering designed the MEP systems, including the heating, ventilation and infrared panel design for the hot yoga room. AK Engineering has continued to develop a relationship with Y7, providing MEP engineering design and consulting services at the Tribeca, Meatpacking District, Lower East Side and Upper East Side studio locations.
