If you can build things with LEGO, you can fix things with LEGO, right? Platform 21 Repair held a Dispatchwork session organised in Amsterdam with a little group of enthusiastic dispatchers and a big bag of colourful LEGO.

Platform 21 billed this event as “LEGO fix for distressed walls”, an art project by Jan Vormann, which fits into the Platform’s very clear manifesto of reparing things being creative, outliving fashion and, à  la Nietzsche, making you stronger.

    I really like this project. Be curious to know whether he glues them in; and whether has to saw individual Legos to get a good fit.
