The Ultimate Team Building Activities: Studio Floras Workshops
1. The Collaborative Challenge: Turkish Mosaic Lamp Making Workshop
This workshop is one of our most popular choices for corporate teams because it requires a unique blend of focus, patience, and attention to detail—skills directly transferable to the workplace.
Team Building Benefit: It encourages mindfulness and sustained focus. The repetitive, precise work of placing glass tesserae can induce a "flow state," which acts as a powerful cognitive reset for analytical minds, leading to reduced stress.
The Activity: Teams work individually or in small groups to select colors and meticulously create stunning, geometric mosaic lamps, guided by expert instructors.
Result: A beautiful, high-value, functional lamp that serves as a permanent, glowing symbol of the effort and precision required to achieve a difficult task.
2. The High-Energy Bond: Rug Tufting Workshop
For teams looking for a lively, active, and instantly gratifying activity that gets them moving, the Rug Tufting Workshop is the perfect fit.
Team Building Benefit: It promotes bold decision-making and rapid execution. The activity is high-energy and fun, making it excellent for breaking the ice and fostering a memorable, shared experience. It's a great outlet for stress and provides immediate, visible progress.
The Activity: Participants learn to safely operate an electric tufting gun to create a custom-designed, personalized rug or wall hanging using colorful yarn.
Result: A unique, tactile piece of textile art that can be displayed in the office as a symbol of team creativity.
3. The Biophilic Boost: Moss Wall Art Workshop
This workshop is ideal for companies prioritizing employee wellness, sustainability, and bringing the calming effects of nature into the workspace.
Team Building Benefit: Tapping into the psychological concept of biophilia, this activity is inherently calming and restorative. It promotes mindful collaboration in a low-pressure setting, helping to reduce anxiety and increase overall well-being.
The Activity: Teams use preserved, maintenance-free moss, bark, and natural elements to design and create a framed, three-dimensional art piece that never needs watering.
Result: A beautiful, zero-maintenance piece of biophilic decor that visually enhances the office and symbolizes growth and stability.
4. The Personalized Retreat: Candle Making Workshop
For a sophisticated, sensory, and highly accessible team building activity, our Candle Making Workshop provides a unique opportunity for personalization and self-care.
Team Building Benefit: It provides a therapeutic and sensory experience. The process of blending custom essential oil scents encourages communication about personal preferences and promotes a collective focus on relaxation and well-being.
The Activity: Teams learn about natural wax and aromatherapy, then blend custom fragrance profiles to pour their own personalized, decorative candles.
Result: A high-quality, fragrant, custom-scented candle that employees can use at home or work as a personal tool for mindfulness.
5. The Detailed Collaboration: Pressed Flower Art Workshop
This activity is perfect for smaller, more intimate executive teams or groups seeking a refined, detail-oriented collaborative event.
Team Building Benefit: It encourages patience, attention to detail, and gentle collaboration. Working with delicate materials requires a thoughtful approach and communication about composition and aesthetics—skills vital for detailed project work.
The Activity: Participants design and assemble elegant compositions using carefully preserved flowers and botanicals, securing them within a frame.
Result: A timeless, framed piece of elegant botanical art that requires a light touch and promotes a lasting sense of beauty.
