The first workshop (n=4) involved building futuristic social robot concepts with LEGOs, and the second workshop (n=8) extended this by including tasks on mapping emotions associated with the robot concepts. By employing these tools, the study explores the relationship between design, emotions, and user experience, to assess the workshop agenda and tools for future studies.Text/Workshop Paper10.18420/muc2023-mci-ws17-395
