This poster expands the human-computer interaction perspective of visual
metaphors into group meeting contexts to improve collaboration planning. We present a
study in which the participants used the LEGO® Serious Play® method as part of their
group planning activity. Each group chose the topic of their planning meeting. The
meetings were videotaped, and then transcribed and analysed using a thematic analysis
method. We used the semantic, cognitive, and material properties of metaphors for this
analysis. The analysis produced various coded themes and narratives of collaboration
centred around the visual metaphor of landscapes. The participants created these
landscapes by stacking and connecting LEGO base pieces, using metaphorical
environments in which they placed and linked different stakeholders. Landscape
metaphors were alternatively used to centre activities around key persons. This study
shows that the use of physical artefacts to create visual landscape metaphors provides
an effective method for planning collaborations in group meetings.
