Overview

edit

Lego DOTS is an arts and crafts theme that encourages designing with 1×1 tiles on either a constructed object, an 8×8 plate or a wristband.[5] The product line focuses on arts and crafts. Each set features DOTS bracelets and room décor.[6]

In addition, HOUSE OF DOTS, an interactive house with an eight-foot slide, was launched in London.[7] London's Coal Yard Drops hosted the launch of Lego DOTS at the HOUSE OF DOTS. The unique art installation is a collaboration between artist Camille Walala and The Lego Group, designed to encapsulate everything about the new product line.[8][9] During the launch of Lego DOTS, The Lego Group invited artist Camille Walala to design the HOUSE OF DOTS.[10][11][12]

In 2020, Lego Masters USA judge and Lego Design Lead Amy Corbett who working on her current project with her design team is Lego DOTS, where they work to customize daily items like jewelry and picture frames.[13][14]

In 2022, a Lego DOTS event was launched in London Westfield shopping centre from 30 May 2022 until 5 June 2022.[15][16]

Development

edit

During the development process of the Lego DOTS theme, Lego design lead and Lego Masters judge Amy Corbett explained how 1×1 tiles became the foundation of Lego DOTS and commented, "We tried out lots of different things and thinking about what creativity means for the kids. How do kids who think they can't achieve success with Lego achieve success quite quickly, so we can prove to them that Lego is something that works for them? The 1×1 tile really was a great way to have this great intuitive creative experience where you don't need a lot of guidance and instruction and you very quickly can succeed – but you can also grow and master it, and get better at it."[17]

Lego designers Laura Perron and Chiara Biscontin discussed their work on LEGO DOTS and explained how the theme was developed. Laura Perron explained, "It's all about experimentation and failing and gaining success, trying things that work and trying things that doesn't work." Chiara Biscontin explained, "As a designer our aim is to create something where kids would feel they can create it and make it their own and not doubt themselves," and continued, "DOTS is a new way to express yourself in a really simple and intuitive way. The way that we designed it is that you have the plates, the brick and then the tile. DOTS is using the tile as the core of what you do to decorate that plates that than go on to a structure that is useful."[18]

Lego Design and Lego Masters judge lead Amy Corbett discussed the foray into the arts and crafts space for Lego DOTS and explained, "We tried many different directions, but we soon found that the 2D building platform and designing through pattern making were the perfect foundation…and after a lot of looping, LEGO DOTS was born." and continued, "Finally, we wanted to showcase the patterns and creativity in a meaningful way; celebrating the designs through items like a pencil box, photo holder or bracelet. With LEGO DOTS, you can play with shapes, colours and decorations to make endless combinations. And something seemingly simple, that anyone can try, can turn into something amazing!"[19]

Lego designers demonstrated the LEGO DOTS home décor items and shared a little of the thought process behind the set designs. Lego designer Laura Perron explained, "When designing the pineapple we wanted to make it as easy to build as possible," and continued, "So we did that in a few ways. We have these coloured layers that make it really easy to see which layer you're on then we have these large layers that make building really fast and easy.”[20]
