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 creation was inspired by the Star Wars Battlefront 2 game. I put a lot of effort into this build, especially the rockwork, ground details and the giant tree and I have to admit I'm pretty happy with the final result.
As you can see this diorama shows a battle between Imperial forces supported by the Inferno Squad and rebel troopers. For more detailed description and 'work in progress' pictures, please check out my Instagram page! (@betterbrickstudio)
These buildings are based on certain architectural elements found in NYC. Especially the fire escape in front, a corner deli and neighborhood restaurants.
The Michigan Lego Train Club put up a large 20 x 30 foot display at the Owosso Train Festival - July 23-26, 2009.
Michelle's variations on the LEGO beach house set.
Here’s a micro scaled build of downtown Los Angeles that I made for Christmas. The buildings are not accurate to what they are in real but I wanted to experiment with some cool designs. 👍 -Btw I didn’t notice the street lamp that fell down during the photo shoot until after I broke the build.😂 Anyways enjoy and share it with others please.
I bought the Townhouse Toy Store set 31105 on sale a while back planning to make it into a modular building. While it's a bolder color than I would normally choose, the design translates well to a 16-stud modular.
MichLTC's 10 x 35 foot display is at the Henry Ford Museum from November 21, 2012 to January 6, 2013.
The name says it all. These are just facades of buildings done to display at the back of any city layout. Kind of block the 'behind the table space'.

I've dreamed of building the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse ever since I first saw the movie as a kid.
Now, in Lego, I have!
Here it is: the most iconic treehouse of all time!
Support this project and you can have your very own Falconhurst Treehouse.

Designing this set was an awesome challenge. My first attempt completely fell apart. Three months later, after redesigning everything, I was done with a solid model. You might think that this set will break apart, but the building techniques used, invisible in the finished model, make it extremely strong, even to the end of every branch. Technic pieces connect the green base to the inside of the tree and into the floor of the main treehouse. From top to bottom this set is solid. There has never been a Lego set anything like this so support it and make it a reality!
The treehouse has lots of great functions. The stairs fold up, just like in the movie. There is a trap door you can open and close in the floor of the main treehouse; the roof of each treehouse comes off easily so you can play inside each hut; the right treehouse opens in the front so you can set things up without taking off the roof. And there are lots of great details, like the bunk bed, ships steering wheel, shelves with books and trinkets, a small organ and so much more.
It comes with six minifigures, two dogs, and two monkeys. The minifigures are Mr and Mrs Robinson, Fritz, Ernst, Roberta or "Bertie" and Francis.
It consists of about 2,730 pieces and most are really small, but with the use of parts that currently don't come in the colors needed for the treehouse (mostly reddish brown and dark brown) this count could easily be reduced. It is an impressive set that fits nicely on the corner of my desk.
Thanks Bruce for the help with the photos.

What. A. Chore. I couldn’t begin to tell you why proportioning this engine has been such a bane, but between the boiler, the tanks, the cab, the bunker, the wheels…. No combination of sizes or shapes I tried worked. This result here… is the least offensive of my attempts and the last of my patience. At quick glance I think it at least communicates (auto tank). But I want to focus on a new build and need to move on. So here’s my first overhaul of the new year rail ready.
Complete over haul of my Pannier design in order to incorporate large drive wheels. Speaking objectively I think I need to just commit to ML wheels for these GWR tanks. And with this one I think it’d do proportions good to move the back axle back one stud and get some off center rods as well.
But I like the shape! I think the body is the closest I’ve gotten to that iconic pannier aesthetic, and after choosing to put traction bands on only the front left and back right flanged drivers, it now has a wonderful little waddle.
Going to keep at it. I want to do this one right.
On a recent trip to the coast, I noticed the many ways in which Land meets Water.
This MOC is an attempt to mimic rockwork as arches using plates. The result was a bowl shaped island which I made into a self sustained island village.
Round 8 of the RogueOlympics at roguebricks.de, last round, this weeks theme: Upside Down. So I built four upside down spaceships in three submissions and I let my fellow Rogues decide which one'll make it as a submission for the final round
The Village Post Office is my first new MOC for over a year. A classic British Post Office set during the early 1930's. The model is not a modular building but features an open back design to give easy access to the interior details.
The model is now on LEGO IDEAS. f you like to vote for the model to be made in to a real set then please visit ideas.lego.com/projects/16ae1e95-cf30-41dd-ae23-36e07668df05
Thanks very much.
Details of the upper stories of the Penobscot Annex LEGO model. Being influenced by the Chicago School, the architects did not lavish much detail on the building. They made an exception on the top few stories.

The third LEGO skyscraper goes up in Wasabi District! At just over 3 feet tall and over 5000 pieces, this 10-storey building is the first office skyscraper in Wasabi District!
This is the office floor, with a receptionist's desk, 3 office desks and a manager's office, as well as a storage room.
A Neo Fabuland Town Square
This build is part of a larger display I built in 2025, revisiting and expanding on the concept of Neo Fabuland—a reinterpretation of the classic Fabuland aesthetic, much like how Neo-Classic Space draws inspiration from the original Classic Space theme. If you’re curious, you can read more about the goals of the project here.
All six builds for this display are now complete, but so far I have only posted two sections, Maximillian’s Watermill and Hilltop Station, and this is the third one I completed.
This build is not inspired by an existing Fabuland set. It features a bustling town centre with a tavern, an apartment building with a rooftop hut and garden, a stone bridge, vehicles and a statue.
Here is my new Ford Building model being displayed as part of a Michigan Lego Train Club display at the Southfield Civic Center. Chris Leach's One Woodward building is on the right.

I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream! This set features an ice cream parlor designed by yours truly, RoboXpert. (Btw, you can see my Minifigure from my logo cleaning a table in the building.) This set took me two days to design and has over 1,261 Lego pieces. It has 19 Minifigures, a dog, and a cat.
The first thing you'll notice on the iScream parlor is the iScream sign as well as all the other wonderful detail put into this build. If you look real close, you'll see that those ice cream cones outside are really lights for when night falls. There are tables and chairs seated around the building for those who just have to enjoy their delicious ice cream outside. If you go inside, there is a beautiful floor design where the guests eat/order as well as a nice floor kitchen design for the employees. Of course, it wouldn't be iScream without ice cream, so there are many flavors to try! You truly will scream when you see iScream!

LUTHERIA SALVERYN, THE RIMEHERALD.
(Winter Wipeout, Pt. 4)
This is my fourth entry into the Winter Wipeout contest hosted by @haon.brx over on Instagram! The theme for this fourth week was "Snow Mages." My entry is an Aasimar Evocation Wizard who specializes in spells that deal cold damage. She wields the powerful and mysterious Staff of the Snow Globe, said to be filled with magic from another realm, far in the future. Lutheria is an incredibly accomplished mage and alchemist known as the "Rimeherald," being incredibly capable of condensing the air and moisture around her into frost, and employing it to devastating effects. It's said that often when she leaves a room, a small trail of snowflakes flutter in the air behind the sweeping train of her robes. At her side is her trusty familiar, Frostbeak, the snowy owl, and "Zero," her ice elemental myrmidon, bound to a magical suit of armor.
As mentioned in the first post, there's a bit of story and lore wrapped in the form of some poetry/lyrics, so read on if you're curious!
"It's said if you listen to the winter winds howl,
You'll hear the spirits of those from the past
If through those winds you see soaring, a white owl
The spirits may answer to the spell that is cast.
Magic at the will of the snow mage most true—
The Rimeherald, a legend, a myth amongst folk—
Which beckons lost souls like a warm igloo
In the blizzard unceasing, her staff does evoke.
This famed one lent power when malice was roused
And the people relinquished all hope for salvation
When time came to locate the quarry, she dowsed
Her trail of snow pointed toward liberation.
Armed with her ice elemental myrmidon
Who bent to her will and protected her life
She pressed on til the darkness yielded to the dawn
And freed the Altairians from starvation and strife."
Built in September 2016. What started as an overnight effort to copy my oldest son's Cub Scout Pinewood Derby car in LEGO form to surprise him the next morning quickly grew to include additional models over the course of the following week.
More models to come!
