Origami Classes for Stripe

Home/1Commissions/Group Classes and Events/Origami Classes for Stripe

 

We’ve all been there. You’re in the middle of a huge project and the entire team is tired but you need to find a way to keep everyone energized and happy.  Recently Taro’s Origami Studio was sent over to the new Stripe Headquarters in Downtown San Francisco in just such a case.  The origami provided a welcome engaging and entertaining activity for the employees to de-stress and use a different more artistic part of their brain.

Stripe is a powerful new technology company with software tht allows individuals and businesses to receive payments over the Internet. They provides the technical, fraud prevention, and banking infrastructure required to operate on-line payment systems.

One of the great things about origami for corporate events (aside from the group-building, mind-expanding, artistic value) is just how simple it is to setup and provide.  For any origami event, all you need is a flat place to fold and some paper, so for the Stripe event, Jennifer setup a simple origami model display station so that people could see what each finished origami model looked like.  That way people could choose what they wanted to make and what color they wanted to make it.

After the event, everyone from the entertainment company that found the studio to the Stripe employees raved about how much fun they had and also about how the activity itself was a wonderful change of pace from staring at screens most of the day.  They were also impressed at how easy origami can be, and we here at Taro’s couldn’t agree more!
