A lattice where the neighboring lattice points are in the corners of a cube.

The unit cell and the primitive reciprocal lattice vectors:

The primitive vectors of the lattice

And the matrix from this:

The reciprocal lattice

The matrix is easy to determine from this:

So the primitive vectors of the reciprocal lattice are:

These vectors also generate a simple cubic lattice in the wavenumber space.
