@Marko – Yes, that’s the set. Book is quite interesting and have some nice ideas as well.
@Sebastian – according to my experiences for urban planning, building modelling (ideation) you might need more exact structures, less metaphors. The 21050 AS offers a more specific brickset, but it’s not about 1:1 models, not like other architecture sets.…[Read more]

Hi!
Not sure WHY you want to use a different set. The KEY of LSP is the metaphor not a 1:1 model.. I think the standard LSP kit is powerful enough to fulfill your needs.Best

@Balint – I understand you have in mind the LEGO Architecture Studio 21050 Playset: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KPPPCVM/?tag=seriousplay-20 ? Given that it consists of 1210 mostly generic bricks, plates and windows then looks like really an interesting idea how to combine it with Landscape and Identity kit to start constructing interesting landscapes.…[Read more]

Hi!
Have you ever used the Architecture (21050) set for LSP? I have the idea to extend it with some bricks from Identity kit, and somehow specify it for architectural needs…

Hi Juan,
I worked in the past with architects – both students and practitioners.
With one of them, we wrote an e-book on using LSP in co-housing – it’s free here http://b4bricks.org/media/handbook-for-co-housing/ sadly it’s in Italian, but maybe with Google translate you can read it easily.
If you have problems, please, let me know!What were…[Read more]

Hi all. I´m Juan from Colombia. I´m wondering if are here any architects, planners of urban designers that use LSP in their design processes, I´m quite curious about starting to use this method but I want to hear from you first! Thanks!

Marcos, thank you for this interesting question and thanks to the others for your contribution.
I presume that we have all been asked this a number of times. A decision maker who would like to see a proof that LEGO SERIOUS PLAY “actually works”.
I have used a number of examples from my practice. I was lucky that one of my first experiences was…[Read more]

Hi Marcos,
I did a four hours session recently in Hong Kong on a topic regarding business innovation using LSP. My audiences came from different industries background, I used “Real time identity for YOU” as a base (not all) and I found “reflection” (one of the core processes) is very important for participants to experience and understand value…[Read more]

Marcos,
others said it well and I totally agree with them: make it relevant and useful.
My only additional suggestion is to clarify that a public demo with many participants is not a workshop and that they will experience something very different.
The challenge for the facilitator, aka you, is to take then into the flow quickly.
In my…[Read more]

Hi, Interested in becoming a certified LSP facilitator. I run a small innovations consultancy called Octapult. I have recently signed a client looking at establishing a social innovations lab. Wondering if anyone on this forum could guide me. I live in Lahore, Pakistan.

Thanks Sebastian, I appreciate the time you guys took to reply. I have been hesitant to talk too much about LSP and its benefits and magic in a “real” workshop, as I rather want the participants to discover it by experience, but in this case I agree it is necessary because of the bad experience that had in the past.
thanks!

Hi Marcus..
Sorry about the bad experience dilemma you have. Been there and more than once!
Totally agree with Christopher.. whether demo or not the issue being discussed must be Real, Relevant and of Significant Interest to the participants. It does not necessarily have to be work related.. I have had success by posing questions related to…[Read more] -

Hello Marcus.
It is unfortunate that your colleagues had that experience. Without knowing the circumstances of your company’s team our request to you, I suggest that you not demand a session of 4 hours unless your company has a REAL problem, issue our opportunity that needs exploring. A 1.5 hour sessIon can be very effective at demonstrating the…[Read more]

Hello All,
I have been requested to design a workshop to “discover” LSP and decide if it is something the company wants to start using or not.
I chose to ask for help and post this question to the community as there is a particular characteristic of some of the people that will take the workshop: they have had an experience before with LSP in a…[Read more] -

Hi Eli,
I am also curious about how does LSP works for empathy.
Just a little add on to your doubts: empathic attitude is key issue during all the process of Design Thinking and all the approaches I know of it include empathy. The relevance of it might change according to the stage, but it is most proeminent during the first stage. IDEO calls…[Read more] -
