A Pet Shop, Brown-stone Town House MOC variant, in Green. (Does that make it a "Green-stone?" Does that even make sense? Anyway, it's green, and it's filled with every thing a big family could want, in a small space.)
A 10243 Parisian Cafe`, heavily modified/MOC'ed. Changes include: additional seating outside, front and back; additional seating inside; access to the rear porch seating through the cafe`; bathroom; expanded kitchen area; a separate access path for the residence (not through the cafe` seating area); fully appointed residence (to include a galley kitchen, living room, and bathroom on the first floor, and the artist studio and bedroom on the second floor). The whole MOC is the compilation of 2-10243's (minus one of the kitchens - that went into the Asian Restaurant), plus a few assorted pieces from my own collection.
The Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge is a bridge that spans over the Trinity River just west of Downtown Dallas. The bridge is designed by world renowned architect Santiago Calatrava, The cable-stayed bridge supports its 1870 ft length and 1197 ft main span with a steel arch whose peak's height is 400 ft. An array of twisting cables connect the underside of the arch's curved pylon to the bridge's platform. Fifty eight white steel cables descend from the arch and secure themselves along the centerline of the platform.
My first try at a Lego Architecture set depicting a building outside the US. Although I wanted to get London's Big Ben first, it was sold out, so I settled for Seoul's main southern gate, Sungnyemun.
This is my first attempt at building a Lego model of East Asian style building, and it turns out quite well. A worthy addition to my Lego collection, even with the disgusting fascist restoration currently under progress in South Korea.
The completed model. The white round 1x1 pieces are used to portray stoned roof sides. 1x1 "claw" pieces at the roof corners represent gargoyles that ward off evil spirits; such gargoyles are common architectural detail in East Asian buildings. As a whole, the gate is a study in opposites/contrasts (yin/yang), balancing the sturdy, monotone stone base with the colorful, delicate wooden upper structure.
(At the real gate, the wooden portion was destroyed in a freak arson attack in 2008, and is being rebuilt for completion in 2012.)
Suggestion from my Seoul-based Flickr contact moreska: populate this model with protester figures, as well as a figure of fascist President Lee Myung-bak, for a very authentic Seoul scene.

Construction of this 190-meter-tall Frankfurt skyscraper designed by Danish Bjarke Ingels Group started in 2016 and lasted until September 2019, when the first tenants moved in. It is since Frankfurt’s seventh-tallest structure, altering the city’s skyline in a major way. Omniturm offers not only office space but also condominiums at a previously unreachable point in the city, 100 meters above ground amidst the Frankfurt skyline, adjacent to iconic skyscrapers such as Sir Norman Foster’s Commerzbank Tower or SAA Schweger Architekten’s Main Tower. The floors containing the apartments are offset from the building’s core in a spiral shape to accommodate balconies, resulting in the Omniturm’s signature “hip swing”. The lower floors are open to the public while a roof terrace is accessible for tenants or inhabitants.
This model consists of 1,739 parts and is built in scale 1:650.
This is a work in progress. I still have lots of work to do on the apse and the side chapels.
Art made with stud.io due to the lack of parts.
Critiques and advices are welcome.
It is a modular fish market sized 64x32 studs comprising seven pavilions and few bridges. The market is divided into wet goods and dry goods zone, with shops ranged from fish stalls, flower shop and grocery stores at Ground, and cafe and restaurant on the 1st Floor. Vibrant Coral and Dark Azur are adopted as colour palette of the design. Built with several types of window frames, a huge canopy provides weather proection to the people below. Enjoy shopping and eating with proper distancing!
Model Installed at the National Building Museum
Over the last 6 weeks, I had the amazing opportunity to design and build my largest LEGO creation yet. When the National Building Museum announced they were expanding their exhibit on LEGO architecture and invited Robert A.M. Stern Architects to submit a model, I jumped at the chance. There were a lot of long hours and sleepless nights as a result, but I am very happy with the end result and am honored to have something that can be enjoyed by thousands rather than just anyone who happens to be in my living room. Here are some facts and statistics:
Project: 15 Central Park West
Architect: Robert A.M. Stern Architects, LLP
Location: New York, New York
Building Height: 548 ft (35 stories)
Scale of Model: 1” = 16’-0”
Height of Model: 36”
Number of Pieces Used: over 30,000
Time to Create: 200 hours (100 hours to design; 100 hours to build)
This model is now on display in the National Building Museum in Washington, DC as part of the expanded exhibit LEGO Architecture: Towering Ambition from now until September 3, 2012. It is in the company of 15 models by LEGO certified professional builder Adam Reed Tucker, so I did my best to create something deserving of sharing the floor with them.
The modular building was inspired by the Prague Astronomical Clock.
Various contraptions are set in motion by motors.
You can see it in motion on youtube.
From left to right along the length of the layout is a custom version of the LEGO Group's fire station set, Chris Leach's Pepsi Building, the Ford Building, Penobscot Building and the Detroit Public Library.
The MichLTC display runs from November 27, 2009 to January 3, 2010 in conjunction with the LEGO Castle Adventure exhibit at The Henry Ford.
Mein Lüneburg-Set zum Selbstbauen. Inkl. Original-LEGO©-Teile, seltener Lüneburg-Kachel und Anleitung.
This model was commissioned by Living Sky Casino in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada. It was unveiled at their 10-year anniversary celebration on December 28, 2018.
Model was built by MEEP Creative Agency (LEGO builder: kellyrev) in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada.
The seven stone-cut murals on the side of the real building were redrawn and printed on vinyl stickers.
My Lego version of Pavillion de l'Esprit Noveau by Le Corbusier. Pretty straihght-forward build except for the round tree hole in the ceiling which was a little tricky. I also exaggerated the coloured section a little to pay tribute to Lego of Denmark. You can see two different versions with different windows and tree.
This is based on a reworking of the Lego Haunted House set, with some "assistance" from Kristel's free instructions from Rebrickable, and other inspirations from BCD Mansard as well as other examples available on other Lego fan sites on the internet. 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.
This is a small portion of the white LEGO bricks liberated by the demolition of my LEGO model of the Fisher Building (version 2). Some of these bricks will be reused for my RMS Titanic cross-section model.
Overview from above.
Whitebrick Sand House is characterized by straight lines, glass and sandy colours. Placed in desertlike environment, yet close to civilization. Somewhere to relax.

In Stephen Kings iconic novel series, the Dark Tower stands in the middle of all creation and serves as a nexus of all worlds. I built this vor the renewed "Marchitecture" Contest for the "Fictional Architecture" category
I'm so proud to present you one of my personal MOC, designed by me and nobody else! :)
This is the faithful model of the Cathedral of Trani, my hometown in Puglia (Italy).
The scale is very similar to the one of Lego Architecture style, as usual.
I designed it in Studio before, and in the end I also managed to build it, with the important help (and tolerance!) of my wife Malwina! :*
A build based on a vision of a sustainable and modern home close to nature.
Green Rock House is divided into Three parts connected by hinges and technic pins. The roof of each level can be removed easily.
The house has full interior with a living room, kitchen, bedroom, Music corner, bathroom and gym.
This is the passage between the entrance hallway and living room.
