Cubes and seats that glow with colour: furniture to use, move around and turn into play. In this sheet you will find what this tool is for, the activities you can do in a SENSEi room and a few tips for making the most of it.

What is light-up furniture

Light-up furniture means cubes, poufs and seats that glow from within in different colours. They are light, sturdy and easy to move to change the layout of the room.

Why in a SENSEi room

In a SENSEi room, light-up furniture picks up the colours of the scene and becomes part of the game: bases to sit on, obstacles to go around, islands to reach. It gives structure to the space without making it rigid.

The SENSEi room is controlled from a tablet: the adult chooses the scene and adjusts intensity, speed and volume, so that every session adapts to the person and not the other way round.

Activities to try

• Colourful islands: jump from one cube to another following the colour shown on the wall.
• The class circle: seats arranged in a circle for story time.
• Sort by colour: move the cubes to create a sequence of colours.
• Stop and go: when the lights change, everyone stops on the nearest cube.

Who it is useful for

Schools, educational centres, group spaces and multi-purpose rooms.

Tips for use and safety

Choose pieces with rounded edges and easy charging. A few well-spaced pieces leave room for movement.

Frequently asked questions

Does light-up furniture work on its own?

Yes, but it works best within a multisensory environment in which projections, sounds, lights and other tools tell the same experience. This is the principle behind SENSEi rooms.

Can it be added to an existing room?

Often yes. Every room comes from a project shared with the people who will use it: we start from the spaces, the people and the goals, then choose the most suitable tools.
