Lego is one of an educative toys for kids and also a well-known toy brands, known by almost everyone ranging from kids to adults, like Lego House. Besides that, a store is needed to complete this Lego House design. The design method used are design thinking and mind mapping. There are 4 stages in this method which are, observation (this is the stage of collecting data and information about education and lego), brainstorming (this is the stage of a problem solving with concept, mind mapping, and some sketch), prototyping (this is the stage of creating a mock up), and implementation (this is the stage of making the final design). The result of those problem solving are the concept of “play lego on the street” where there’s an educational value in it.
