There are lego designers among us…

When I was given MILLIONS of legos this summer – I knew what I was going to do with them.

Challenge you to THINK and be CREATIVE.

Your Design Challenge: Create SOMETHING with Lego.

The purpose of this unit is to review the design cycle and to create a product out of legos.

I will give you the specifics in class, but here are the most important details and design specifications:

  • This is an individual project.
  • You will need to create a product for a purpose – a solution to a problem, an art installation for a specific event or location, or another real purpose.
  • You can NOT go out and buy more lego pieces.
  • You will need to create this in a week.

Please stay open-minded while you are investigating.  You may already think you know what you want to do, but look to see what products already exist on the web.  Have you ever been to a Lego Land or other Lego stores for more inspiration?

While I was investigating for this unit, I came across this: 5,000 Kids Create Futuristic Map of Japan Using 1.8 Million LEGO Bricks  Have you seen this?!  Whoa!
