Take any precedent in Baroque gardens – whether it be the Gardens of Versailles, the parterres of the Belvedere Palace in Vienna, or those of the Peterhof Palace in Saint Petersburg – each are subsequent iterations of the movement which began with the Vatican Gardens. In fact, the gardens account for more than half the total land area of Vatican City and occupy much of the hillside terrain, rising to roughly 60 m (197 ft) above sea level or about equal in height with the base of the dome of St. Peter’s. Naturally, such a dramatic landscape has been coupled with sensational origin stories, including that Constantine I’s mother, Empress Saint Helena, christened the site with soil from Mount Calvary as well as a cited source of inspiration for the gardens being the breathtaking landscapes of Arcadia (Ancient Greece’s bread basket). According to records, however, the earliest orchards and vineyards at the site date back to the thirteenth-century Papacy of Nicholas III, who also began the centuries-long construction of the Vatican walls which mark much of the city’s boundaries today.
It was not until the sixteenth century that the design of these gardens was tended as rigorously as the built architecture itself. Under the commission of Pope Julius II, Donato Bramante pioneered Renaissance landscape design in his layout of the Cortili del Belvedere, the long rectangular enclosure of narrow corridors stretching north from the Basilica (pictured center-left to left edge). Today, the Cortili del Belvedere has been partitioned into three courtyards by two later additions, but is relatively well-preserved in terms of its spatial precedence and garden layout.
The largest temple in Ancient Rome, designed in characteristically Greek fashion and built under Emperor Hadrian, the third of the so-called "Five Good Emperors."

With this building I wanted to create a single-color house and instead of colors using a lot of structure on the facade. The building can be opened at the back and when fully opened, the two parts of the back expands the facade on the front and it becomes a 64 studs wide building. On the ground floor there is an architecture office and above that a large apartment. About 9700 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used.

“An old knight is enjoying his retirement and pursuing his hobbies after years of battles and quests.” Howdy flickr! I’ve built with Lego for as long as I can remember, but I’ve only recently gotten back into it, and this is the first castle MOC I’ve built in a long time. I would appreciate any comments or feedback, hope you enjoy!
Original building was constructed in 1645 as a private palace in Uppsala, Sweden. From 1710 the building was used as the town hall. The building received its current exterior in 1883.
Modular building is constructed of three parts, 32x32 studs, where the middle part can be used as a separate modular building. Middle part contains a staircase. Total about 13000 bricks. Some bricks have been chosen in colors that are not currently available to make the final result look more like the real building. Computer rendering.
Throwback to a moc that I created two years ago. New renderings and some minor changes from the original moc. Väven is a cultural center in Umeå, Sweden located next to Ume River. Väven was built in 2011-2014 and next to Väven is the hotel Stora Hotellet. Architects are Norwegian Snøhetta and White arkitekter. Computer rendering but only existing bricks were used.
A modern tree house inspired by a house by A.Masow Architects. About 4500 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used. Reference images.
This is a Lego modular of the F-town Building located in Sendai, Japan by architect Atelier Hitoshi Abe. About 8500 bricks of which over 3000 are white 1x1 plates. 😂 Computer rendering but only existing bricks were used. Reference images.
Modern living at split levels. Three kinds of sections - striped, brown and olive green.
In Olive Sand House I combine the the desertlike surroundings and olive green/tan colour scheme of Whitebrick Sand House with the striped architecture of for example Green Rock House, Calmwater Cliff House and Vanilla House that has in some way become my trademark.
No other city in the world has more erect Ancient Egyptian obelisks than Rome. These relics of the distant past were often plundered from their homeland by various Roman emperors touring their lands and taken back to Rome where they stood in forums or at the center of a spina in a Roman circus. This particular obelisk is no exception as it is the same one that stood amid the Circus of Caligula nearly 2,000 years ago. It has remained upright ever since, first at its original position (despite the demolition of the circus’s ruins to make way for Old St. Peter’s Basilica) until it was moved to its current position in 1586 at the direction of Pope Sixtus V. It is the only obelisk in Rome that has not toppled since ancient times, and it is also unknown precisely how long ago it was carved as there are no telltale surface engravings, unlike other Egyptian obelisks throughout Rome. It is believed to have been originally erected at Heliopolis, Egypt by an unknown Pharoah, until Emperor Augustus had it moved to the Julian Forum in Alexandria. The obelisk was then moved to Rome under Caligula’s orders in 37 CE.
This solid red granite obelisk stands roughly twenty-five meters (84 feet) tall and weighs around 320 tons. It is supported upon bronze lions and the Chigi family arms at its base, and topped by a bronze cross and additional set of Chigi arms which were added by Bernini to commemorate his patron, Pope Alexander VII, born Fabio Chigi, whose dedication is also denoted on the architrave inscriptions of the colonnades’ entablatures. With its base and spire, the obelisk rises to an impressive total height of forty-one meters (135ft). In the model, the aforementioned bronze lions and arms are represented here with a pair of contorted minifig handcuff elements and a ski pole at the top standing in for the other arms and the cross. Additionally, the architrave inscriptions of Alexander VII’s dedications have been painstakingly printed on the sides of plates at the ends and middles of the two colonnades by my skilled friends over at The Original BrickEngraver/BrickPrinter.
