We’re pleased to announce that another space has just been equipped with Tetrix cubes! This time, it’s GNAK’s brand-new offices in Lille. Shiny, fresh, and now fitted with 20 cubes to add some flexibility.
20 cubes can become a giant whiteboard wall for meetings, 20 stools for busy evenings, or 3 whiteboard tables with seating for a creative brainstorming session.
The choice is yours!
Huge thanks to the entire GNAK team for their trust:
We have just concluded a fantastic session with Openfield in Kuala Lumpur. What a joy to work in a beautiful environment with Tetrix cubes, whiteboard walls and the Workshop application. The right tools make for great sessions 😉
Bolloré Logistics has chosen the Tetrix cubes to furnish its collaborative space in Singapore. The space is superb and now ready to receive its first groups of participants.
It is always very rewarding to be chosen by renowned groups, especially Bolloré Logistics, for which we know the high standards.
Thank you Bolloré Logistics for your trust!
We often highlight Tetrix cubes’ exceptional modularity. Here is a new example with the temporary transformation of the Design Studio KL into a Showroom for the launch of Lumika, a new company designing sustainable objects for the home. Large double-sided bookcases have been built to show off the items in full-height.
They are perforated with openings to allow visibility and light to pass through.To illuminate the objects we simply attached rechargeable and magnetic LED lamps to the upper side of the cubes.
It works like a charm.At the entrance, we erected a corner shelf where Lumika orders can be stored while awaiting delivery.
The Design Studio is unrecognisable now and as always it has been easy and fun to assemble the different elements.
Let’s meet and talk about collaborative spaces! We will be at the Workspace Expo this coming 5th, 6th and 7th October, taking place at Paris porte de la Vilette. You will be able to see, feel and test the Tetrix cubes and their accessories for real. Find us at our local distributor booth, Makiba. We will be waiting for you at B26-C26.

Finally! Face to face events are back.
For this session we had 150 Tetrix cubes for 50 participants and we felt it was the right number required. Let’s keep in mind the ratio of 3 cubes for 1 participant as a good minimum number.
Congratulation to the team – their set-up was really refreshing and made the best out of the large space we had. It was inspiring and truly modular.
On the tech side, the iPad application Workshop has been used on the session and performed very well overall. All inputs/outputs of the session and every report-out in the plenary have been managed through the iPads by one single person. The app offers plenty of simplicity, saves a tremendous amount of time and prevents the printing of tons of papers.
It has been a long time since we feature a Totem… So here it is!
This totem is at the Design Studio entrance and as often it serves different purposes.
It is firstly a welcoming sculpture. The height of it makes it impressive and it tells at first sight that the space you are entering is different.
It is also a Bookshelf and if you cover it with quotes and messages it becomes a sort of an inspirational corner.
Finally, because it is surrounded by benches, it is also a place to stop, take a breath and discuss with others.
When you are starting a new journey with a group, it is often a good idea to spend the first moment meeting each other, ‘breaking the ice’, so the following interactions are more spontaneous and friendly.
It might be a moment of teambuilding, which literally means creating or fostering the team spirit. Now feeling part of a team is expecting to be supported by your fellow comrades as well as helping them when it is needed. It is based on empathy and trust.
So, designing a teambuilding experience is all about stimulating empathy. It is crafting a shared experience for each member to recognize his/her feelings within his/her partners.
We have designed such an experience with our Tetrix cube and we thought it might be a good idea to share it with you. Here is how it goes:
The space is wide open with no chairs or desk. What you see is mainly a large pile of cubes, sort of welcoming totem, waiting for you.
When newcomers go through the door, they feel a bit confused. This is where the experience begins…
First, they have to crack the enigma: ‘Where are the chairs and those whiteboards we have been promised’?
Ultimately, they will guess that the cubes are the answer but how does it work? Can we sit on it? Does it stack? They have to examine together this bizarre piece of furniture until the expected ‘hoooo, but we can actually build things!’ happens, followed by a round of applause and excitement.
Of course, before going any further, there are negotiations on what they should build. Should it be a whiteboard wall or rather a table? The group discusses, compromises and finally takes the cubes and starts building.
In a matter of 10 minutes, this group has been through a little adventure. Not quite a donjon quest but a positive first shared experience. They found answers, they laughed, they negotiated and decided collectively what was the best set-up for them and they finally built it.
Genuine team building.
This collective moment works even after two or three times.
The enigma has been cracked but it will be replaced by more architectural audacity 😉
