Can you cool down a city with LEGO? In this hands-on workshop, you become an urban climate planner. Start by building a LEGO city with roads, buildings and open spaces, then scan it in our temperature booth and watch as artificial intelligence turns your design into a local temperature map.

Which parts of your city are the hottest? Where does it stay cooler? Together, we explore how buildings, hard surfaces, parks, trees and water influence heat during a heatwave. Then comes the challenge: redesign your city to make it cooler. Make your changes, scan it again, and compare the results.

A playful workshop for both young and old: everyone can build, test, improve and learn.
