    Bobby runs a very unique New York influenced boxing gym in central Norwich called HUSTLE.

In this episode we cover Bobby's creative process from taking an empty warehouse to a gritty yet inspiring gym, how to make a space 'instagram-able' and how to keep high retention with clients through having a purpose built facility. HUSTLE Norwich isn’t just a gym. It’s your space for what you need in your time. Boxing fitness to release work stress. Time out for your mental health. A social place to meet friends.

    Welcome to The Self Builders Podcast. In the first ever episode, we speak to Joe Priday. Joe and his wife Claire recently featured in one of the best ever episodes of Grand Designs, and if you have seem the episode you will know why! Their new home, the Hux Shard really pushes the boundaries of modern design and technology, a true 'grand design'. The aim of the build was to produce a building on a site that improves the ecology, enhances its surroundings and provides energy for the country; generally speaking most development sites do precisely the opposite and hopefully this project can provide a didactic solution to address this issue. CARBON NEGATIVITY - The building would produce more energy than it consumes. LOCAL MATERIALS - The use of local and recycled materials have been integrated into the design. TECHNOLOGY - There are no special or unusual features but instead carefully crafted methods, marginal gains, materials and management have been utilised in an efficient, ecological and artistic form. LEGACY - The knowledge and experience gained will be published on this website and made available to the public. In addition the performance of the building would be monitored and an annual open day would be held to enable future builders and designers to learn from the building methods and details used. This could be very useful for the self build market that the government are currently nurturing.
