Lego Serious Play presentation and workshop 15/11/2011

On Wednesday 9 November David Swann from the University of Huddersfield delivered a presentation at Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) outlining the development of Lego Serious Play methods  for use in design. The presentation was open to members of UCHD, CLAHRC and the Art and Design Research Centre at SHU.

Lego Serious Play is a tool more traditionally associated with business use but David showed how this method can offer new opportunities for product and service development. Following the presentation David led a workshop for the  UCHD team to try these methods for themselves.

A more detailed account of the workshop will be posted on the website soon. In the meantime you can find out more about David’s work by following the links below:
