Have any facilities management professionals looked at using Minecraft as a tool for imagineering facilities space layouts? I’m not sure if it’s a great idea, but in watching my grandkids build extremely clever structures, it made me think that here is something that allows you to be creative with virtually no training. Plus, it’s fun and produces pretty cool 3D results.
