the game

fix your own house

2013 -2014

This board game was designed in order to support our field studies for our master thesis TOS.

It is called “Fix your own house” and it consists of a wooden board with holes in a grid in which you can put walls in a modular way and then use different wooden symbols to represent the various activities and define the spaces you want the house of your dreams to include.

It is mainly a tool for designers that want to implement participatory approaches in their work.

According our own experience this game yields impressive results and long and fruitful conversations regarding housing preferences.
