I saw this article over on theNextWeb: Playing with Lego helps you create better websites, apparently.

From the article:

Can playing with Lego help you design better websites? A new, entirely serious, document from a Swiss team claims it can. URL – User Requirements with Lego is a process that creative teams can go through to help work out the best ways of communicating online.

Why Lego? Apparently because it’s simple to use; is known by most people; offers shapes and colours to aid with inspiration; can be built into simple or complex forms and is used in many different cultures. The process is based on an official Lego initiative called Serious Play, which looks to get all kinds of businesses using Lego to enhance their innovation and performance.

Read the rest of the article HERE.

I love the idea of helping teams work out solutions using Lego models.  The article talks about using it for web projects, but i wonder if you could use the same ideas for other projects.  Anyone want to plan their Fall Retreat this way?

I’m not sure it will work, but I’d love to try.  Can I buy Legos as a work expense?
