Team building: clay as a team engine

TURNKEY DYNAMICS FOR COMPANIES

Turnkey workshops of 1.5 to 3 hours designed to boost empathy, non-verbal communication and strategic collaboration. We welcome you at our studio surrounded by the natural setting of the Montseny, or we come to your company with all the materials.


THE MATERIAL

01Break the digital routine. Working with your hands takes the team off the screen and back to the here and now.
02Dissolve stress. Clay does not forgive haste: it forces a slower, more attentive and breathable pace.
03Genuine communication. No hierarchies, no slides: people talk differently with busy hands.

Three dynamics designed to boost empathy, non-verbal communication and strategic collaboration. Your company chooses the one that best fits its goals.


The three dynamics

Three ways of working together.

01

The chain self-portrait

Co-creation, empathy and collective intelligence.

See the activity

Concept: a polyphonic piece where nobody is the sole author of the result. Sculpture becomes a living metaphor for feedback, listening and mutual trust.

Dynamic: each person spends 15 minutes modelling their own self-portrait — physical, emotional or professional. The piece then moves to the person on their right, who interprets it and adds layers and textures for another 15 minutes, in a chain rotation until the cycle closes.

The value: it breaks excessive attachment to individual ego and trains radical empathy, showing how other eyes lift an idea far beyond what one could achieve alone.

Result: medium-format, stable sculptures designed to be fired and shipped safely.

02

Sculpture for two

Attunement, coordination and the one-hand challenge.

See the activity

Concept: an exercise in maximum complicity where two minds must operate through a single shared body.

Dynamic: in pairs at one piece, each person uses one hand only — one the left, the other the right — and together they model an assigned concept.

Key concepts: resilience · sustainable growth · the bridge between departments · open innovation.

The value: it forces people to communicate without speaking, to anticipate the other’s movement, to give up control and to find a shared rhythm.

Result: unique pieces born from the symbiosis of two people, ready for bisque firing and shipping.

03

Mirrored conceptual translation

Listening, clarity and perspective.

See the activity

Concept: translating ideas and conceptual design, where precision of language, active listening and tactile interpretation take centre stage.

Dynamic: pairs face to face, separated by a visual barrier. One receives a card with an abstract image and guides their partner by describing shapes without naming the object, while both model at the same time.

The value: when the barrier comes down, the original card and both sculptures are compared — a revealing moment about how we interpret and pass on instructions.

Result: a pair of mirrored figures that reflect the flow of communication and differences in perspective.


FORMATS AND DURATION

1.5 – 2 h · Standard format (1 activity). The recommended option for most company events: it fits a corporate agenda without exhausting the group.
2.5 – 3 h · Combined format (2 activities). Full immersion for retreats or days where team bonding is the main focus.

LOGISTICS

01The space. You choose: you come and work at our studio in the natural setting of the Montseny, a space designed to step out of the routine and connect as a team, or we travel to your premises with all the necessary kit (clay, individual boards, tools and protective cloths).
02Ceramic kiln firing. If you want to keep the pieces made during the session, we keep them at our studio for slow drying and professional high-temperature firing.
03Packing and shipping. We protect every fired piece with shock-proof packaging and ship them together by post directly to your company. (Firing, packing and postage costs are optional and borne by the client according to weight, volume and destination).
