Street Designers X Goal: Graffiti team-building at Mama Shelter

On the occasion of their annual seminar, But, a digital furniture store, has decided to seek France’s leading creative events agency, Street Designers in order to deploy a workshop focused on Urban art with its collaborators.

It’s in a hall hired from the Mama Shelter, located near the Porte de Versailles Exhibition Centre in the 15th arrondissement, that the management of this interior design brand decided to invite all of its managers based in France. Upon their arrival, the forty participants had the good fortune to discover the activity that was reserved for them: an introduction to graffiti led by street artist Scarred, through a team building as playful as it is fun, aiming to stimulate them artistically in order to boost their productivity for their future professional tasks.

Once the techniques taught have finally been mastered, two teams are formed and asked to compete against each other in a friendly atmosphere in «battle» style challenges. This is followed by the Creation of three canvases per team on which the letters that form the word BUT will be written, in order to rally teammates around their entity.
