Synopsis:
With the rising rates of obesity in the US today, it's no wonder fitness is a factor in how people eat, play, vacation - and how they design their homes. The high-fit home has many faces - from stairs that beckon the climber to explore new views to pools that literally lure you into the home. But whatever form fitness takes, how to incorporate it into living space is a subject that architects now ponder and perfect.
