In the autumn of 2024, an attractive entertainment and integration space was created in Olivia Prime B, the newest building of Olivia Centre, which is perfect for both families during joint outings and employees during integration meetings and having fun together. Pixel XL consists of several rooms where various challenges await, and the implementation of all the construction work rested on the shoulders of the Gdańsk-based Design Anatomy design studio.
Pixel XL offers 13 rooms, designed for people from 3 years of age. Each of them can accommodate up to 8 people at the same time, but in Pixel it is possible to organize events for groups for which activities are prepared in several rooms at the same time. The main emphasis is placed on emotions, movement and fun based on interactive game scenarios, already specified at the entrance. In total, there are as many as 40 to choose from and it is up to the participants which one they want to play.
Interactive mats, consisting of colorful tiles, allow you to chase colors, play to music or challenge yourself to escape from objects moving on the floor. It is an analogue game in the digital world, in which positive emotions, movement and spending time together prevail. In addition, there are tasks that allow you to test your reflexes, develop logical thinking skills, improve fitness and memory. In addition to the playrooms, there is also a snack bar for guests. The space of Pixel in Gdańsk covers an area of 1053 m.kw, and was designed by the Wrocław-based Cudo studio, and the supervision over the implementation of the project was entrusted to the Gdańsk-based Design Anatomy studio.
– It is a unique space, full of colours and emotions, which opened its doors in Olivia Centre at the beginning of December – says Weronika Budzyńska, architect from Design Anatomy. – Among our tasks was the coordination of the implementation of the entire project on site: supervision over the execution of all industry projects, such as ventilation, sanitary, electronic and electrical networks. It is a unique project that combines high security requirements with creativity and complex systems to control such unique spaces as the gaming and entertainment center.
Pixel XL is the first gaming centre in Olivia Centrum, but not the first public attraction for the residents of the Tri-City and tourists. Previously, there was an observation floor on the 32nd floor of Olivia Star and an exotic Olivia Garden, and they are complemented by the cultural and entertainment stage on 34th floor of Olivia, where stars of Polish music, theatre, cinema and television regularly visit.
– From the beginning of the development of this project, Olivia has focused on openness and friendliness for the inhabitants of the Tri-City – says Bogusław Wieczorek, the representative of the management board of Olivia Centre. We want to be part of a living city and, in addition to top-level offices, we want to offer entertainment, culture and gastronomy. Olivia, after 5 years from the opening of the observation floor, has already become a tourist destination, a meeting place for people of different ages and with different preferences. This not only allows us to feel part of the city, but also represents great value for our residents, allowing them to provide a varied and interesting offer of activities outside of hours and during working hours.
