Studio Series Difference - Elakai Outdoor

What Makes Studio Series Games Different?

Studio Series is Elakai’s collection of design-forward games, thoughtfully reimagined through elevated materials, distinctive craftsmanship, and timeless design. 

Created to be enjoyed as much as admired, each piece brings together familiar play and considered design—made for the deck, game room, lake house, backyard, and the spaces where people naturally gather.

Solid hardwoods, hand-poured resin, refined metal details, and furniture-inspired forms transform familiar games into pieces designed to complement their surroundings. 

Designed to be seen. Made for real play.

What Is the Elakai Studio Series?

Studio Series begins with familiar games and considers them through a new lens: how they’re crafted, how they feel in the hand, and how they become part of a space. 

Across the collection, that means: 

  • Familiar games thoughtfully reimagined through material and design  
  • Natural hardwoods, hand-poured resin, and refined metal details  
  • Craftsmanship that celebrates the character of the materials  
  • Pieces designed to complement patios, decks, lake houses, game rooms, and gathering spaces  

The result is a thoughtfully curated collection where craftsmanship, play, and design come together.

Why Do Materials Matter?

Materials are central to the Studio Series experience. 

Natural hardwood brings warmth, grain, tone, and character to each piece. Hand-poured resin introduces color, movement, and artistic detail. Refined metal accents and carefully considered finishes complete designs that feel as intentional as the spaces they inhabit. 

Together, these materials give familiar games a distinctive character while celebrating the natural beauty and craftsmanship behind each piece. 

What Does Natural Variation Look Like?

Working with natural wood and hand-poured resin means each piece carries its own character. Grain, tone, and figure naturally vary from one piece of wood to another, while hand-poured resin creates unique movement and pattern. 

These subtle differences are part of what makes Studio Series special. Each piece reflects the natural materials and hands-on craftsmanship behind its design, creating something uniquely its own. 

How Does Craftsmanship Change a Familiar Game?

The games themselves remain familiar. Studio Series reimagines the experience surrounding them through materials, details, and thoughtful construction. 

Mountain Ladder Ball pairs solid acacia wood with refined stainless steel accents, bringing an elevated presence to a backyard favorite. Live Edge Social Pong combines solid acacia construction with a versatile design that converts into matching accent tables between gatherings. Beach Resin Giant 4-in-a-Row brings together natural wood, hand-poured beach-inspired resin, and coordinating playing pieces to create a game with statement-making presence. Studio Series Resin Cornhole showcases solid wood construction and hand-poured resin artistry, with select designs incorporating the natural edge of the wood into each one-of-a-kind board. 

Each takes a familiar way to play and gives it a distinct Studio Series expression.

Can a Game Be Both Beautiful and Made for Real Play?

Yes—and that balance is at the heart of Studio Series. 

These are games created for gathering: afternoons outside, evenings on the deck, weekends at the lake, and moments shared with family and friends. Thoughtful materials and craftsmanship give each piece an elevated presence without losing sight of what it was made for.
