House of Three is a contemporary Scandinavian family home. I've tried to catch contemporary Scandinavian architecture in colours, floor plan and roof design. The interior and furniture in inspired by IKEA and other Scandinavian designs. Comfortable living suitable for a small family.

Thank you!!!
In the process of weighing the 28 baseplates in Brickville, this tower accidentally tipped over, causing the one behind it to topple as well. This is the result of me now wanting to turn each set of floors on a slight angle.
This is the 21004 set of the Architecture series, the first and smaller set of Guggenheim Museum in New York.
It was a Christmas present from several years ago but the original design had never convinced me...
So, I have changed the entire model, from the basement to the main building, until to the iconic roof!
The inspiration is the 21035 set, the bigger Guggenheim, but I always prefer the smaller sets because they are more synthetic and ingenious! :)
Haunted Townhouse (Mansard Victorian) next to Fung Choa's Asian Restaurant.
This is a reworking of the Lego Haunted House set, with some "assistance" from Kristel's free instructions from Rebrickable, and other inspirations from BCD Mansard and other examples available out there. I'm happy with the outcome, especially with the line of the imbedded chimney, seen if the side of the building is not against another building.
Converted from the Palace Cinema, Fung Choa's Asian Restaurant is the establishment that it was yearning to be. With elements from Ninjago and a kitchen stocked from an extra Parisian Cafe, this restaurant has had it's footprint expanded to allow easy dining for all minifigs who want a nice asian meal.
Metropolis' take on the iconic Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Also inspired from a much earlier version.
Inspired by The Cary Building, New York City, an all-white LEGO facade. About 6750 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used.
Based loosely on BCD Colonial Revival House instructions. Instead of it being the 3 floors of simple boxes, I've fleshed it out a bit, adding fully furnished rooms and stairs to the second floor and a pull down ladder to the attic (which is also furnished with a guest bed and a desk/office area).

FELIX DIES NATALIS ROMAE!
On this day in 753 BCE, the city of Rome was founded by Romulus, according to later imperial tradition. To celebrate the 2,775th anniversary, I have now revealed the complete redesign of Ancient Rome's largest and highest capacity venue - CIRCUS MAXIMUS - on Patreon!

The micro city that led to Brickville. I have decided to give up my LEGO collection, however I will commemorate each of my past cities with a skyline.
Three of the 12 wall modules that will make up the exterior of the mini-fig scale model of the old Wayne County Building in Detroit, Michigan. As you can see from the main entrance staircase and the second floor details, this model is going to eat a lot of 1x tiles.
Calmwater Cliff House is located on a cliff by the beach. Two floors with a terrace on each floor. Downstairs you find a spacious kitchen and dining area, a bathroom and home office. Upstairs you find a music corner with sea view, a bedroom and the main entrance.
As you see it´s a LEGO house and I´ve mainly used the colours black, dark tan, tan and reddish brown.
I wanted to make a modern home - in some way inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright and the colours of the 20th century - updated to 21st century lifestyle.

Troll A is the world’s biggest natural gas platform, built between 1992 and 1995. From the seabed to the tip of the flare boom it measures 472 meters or 1548 feet. If it stood onshore it would surpass New York’s Empire State Building by almost 30 meters! While it is currently situated 65 kilometers (40 miles) off the coast of Norway, it was constructed in the safety of Vats fjord and then towed to the Troll gas field. It is the tallest and, at 656,000 tons, the heaviest structure ever moved. Since it started operation in 1996, the platform was extended several times to be able to further exploit the draining supplies of natural gas and crude oil under the North Sea, extracting around 100,000 m3 or 3,300,000 ft3 per day, together with Troll B and Troll C.
The model consists of 3,150 pieces, is built in scale 1:650, and features a blue whale for scale.

This build is a large castle/landscape display featuring The Knights of the Black Falcon and The Forest Guard.
First and foremost the aim of this build was to showcase what I love about those classic mid-80s Castle sets and specifically my two favourite factions. I have drawn inspiration from the original sets featuring each faction, specifically what I loved about them as a child and aimed to contrast that with what appeals to me as an adult builder.
The build features two fortresses side by side, Falkenholt Castle, the fortress of the Knights of the Black Falcon and an underground network of caves and tunnels that comprise the fortress of the Forest Guard.
Some of the elements that I am most happy with in this build are the level of detail and texture, the cross-section style cutaway on the edges of the build showing the internal structure of the castle as well as the geological layers of rock, clay and soil.
And so it begins...
A month ago, I announced my project, SPQR: Imperial Rome, alongside the launch of my Patreon page. I knew that if I were to make the Patreon content more meaningful, I needed something special to drive interest and engagement in the crucial early days, months and (hopefully) years. That is why I am particularly keen on delivering on these expectations as soon as possible. So, without further ado, I'm happy to offer the first look at the design process for SPQR!

I made this a while ago but added two stories and moved it to the Bley District. This is not a skyscraper.

The awesome taxi is a moc by T.Bricks (thilo-schoen.de). He has more cool models and even writes books, go check him out! TV camera and piano a based on mocs by Kristel (rebrickable.com/users/Kristel/) and SleepyCow (rebrickable.com/users/SleepyCow/) Thanks so much for being so generous! ❤️

Cuboid Garden House MOC wooden deck and dog.
This house has a number of cuboid bodies linked together by a dark blue tiled hallway hosting a spiral staircase. Large glass windows offer a view of the ground floor and roof garden. Solar panels and home grown vegetables contribute to a sustainable way of living.
This is the 21013 set of the Architecture series, but I have modified just some little details, above all on the roof the tower! :)
Stefano Garzya asked me to help him complete his Helm's Deep project. So I got to work and added the Great Hall, Mountain Side, staircases and did some structural work to bring his vision to life.
