LEGO Architecture Studio sets are unique in that there is no predetermined model to build. Instead, the kits come with a detailed text created by leading architects that provides inspiration for students' unique building designs. Students will use LEGO Architecture Studio as a hands-on way to learn about math, business, and design. Students will first learn about the architecture concepts in the text, followed by walking tours of Denver neighborhoods and visits to local design firms to study different architectural styles around the city. After this, students will use geometry concepts to develop a materials list for building their houses. Then, students will perform building cost analyses based on current real estate prices, construction costs, and materials costs. Once that is complete, students will revise the designs of their houses to maximize profits. Will students choose builders' grade materials and build in a less expensive neighborhood, or will they go all in on high-end finishes in pricier areas? The culminating product will be a scale model of students' houses built with LEGO Architecture Studio, along with detailed blueprints and a (mock) real estate listing. Overall the class will integrate several content areas in a hands-on, practical, and engaging manner.
