I designed this with the Parisian Restaurant in mind, but it is made to be totally modular and used with any Modular from Lego or custom built.
The central part of my idea is the park, which in turn can be used as a larger park or two smaller ones, on the likes of the Lego Pet Shop modular.
But there’s more! It can be connected to extra pavements and these can also be used with your modulars, to create squares, make a standard modular look like a corner one, or create your own and unique combination. Did I mention that there's also a colorful mosaic?
There's a bunch of accessories, from a fire hydrant to a comfy bench, and some of them are used to disguise the standard Technic brick used to connect modulars.
And if that was not enough, you will get a lot of accessories to make your city stem to life!
There's a newspaper kiosk, designed to remind the Parisian ones, a crepes rickshaw, a trash trolley, a monumental statue, two wonderfully flowered trees and a big oak tree to give some shade in the park.
And then several other smaller accessories that can be used with this set or all over your modular town.
And, last but not least, there’s 7 minifigs (and a dog) to animate the town!
If you are a Lego Modulars fan, you will want to have all of these in your Lego town.

As the sun drops, the shadows align into a strict pattern of alternating dark and bright planes. The repetition becomes almost architectural music, precise yet alive with the remnants of daylight.
A modular school.

Every city needs a school! The build spans among 3 baseplates and consists of 10 modules. The baseplates can be separated from each other for easy transportation. The complete model weighs about 10kg and has 14417 parts.
The front part contains the main entrance, some trees and a bus stop. The roof areas contain the ventilation units, photovoltaics and the clock.
The ground floor contains the main entrance hall with washrooms for boys and girls. The right wing of the ground floor contains a standard classroom for maths and literature. The left wing of the ground floor contains the music classroom, featuring a piano, drums and some other instruments.
The middle floor contains a cafeteria, where the students can get a quick bite and some refreshments. The left wing of the middle floor contains an IT-classroom and it seems the students are well stocked on mobile devices. The right wing of the middle floor contains the science classroom. At the moment some experiments are ongoing in the chemistry class.
The upper floor contains the library.
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)

Inspired by some beautiful examples of painted paper I saw recently, I decided to give it a go too!
So here is my first attempts to paint tant paper. Two sheets are colored with liquid acrylic paint (gold), one with cream acrylic (silver) and one with spray paint (bronze). Worked out quite nicely! :)

Я тоже покрасила!)) Золото и серебро наносила кистью, бронза из спрея.
MOC: Modular LEGO Store. Based on the LEGO Brand Retail Store set that has been used as a giveaway at store openings over the past couple of years, but blown up to minifig scale.
And yes, I know that the original set isn't a corner building, but I just hadn't built one yet and needed one for a layout I was working on :)
Modular Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 8 units, no glue
This one is from the same family. First-born.
This origami star frenzy is kind of getting ridiculous, don't you think:D
My modular flower made from Peter Keller's origami paper (colour scheme "Herbst", Pack Autumn/Fall at etsy).
Peter Keller asked me to test his new paper for modular origami. Sheets are 5*5 cm. It is a bit small for me. I prefer size larger than 7*7 cm for my kusudamas from squares. However, this paper is very well suited to modular flowers or modular stars. For starters, I have chosen flowers.
The paper folds very well and has no damage on the creases.

For a long time I wanted to build/design a railway station, but it had to be designed upon the following conditions:
- only cheap parts to be used while still having a good looking design
- fit in with the modular buildings
- the station being modular as well
To achieve the first point I tried to use mostly parts that are often available in Lego stores. Therefore most of the station building can be built with only 1x2 and 1x1 tan bricks (not considering bricks for snot). Also the 1x4x3 white windows are often offered on the PaB wall, so I decided to build a glass canopy for the facade and the platforms as well. The masonry bricks used for the platforms can be changed with normal bricks, therefore only very few pieces might be costly (or not).
The second goal wasn't hard to fulfill: the building is 32 bricks long and 16 bricks wide. The second floor can be added several times to make it higher. Therefore you can put it next to Lego's modular buildings and it will fit nicely.
The station is modular as well: You don't have to build the canopy above the platforms, but it's a nice addition. The platform is divided into several sections, which results in the station being able to be enlarged in width and length.
The station design is simple but effective and isn't based on any real building. The small towers aren't really necessary, but they are a nice addition. I got the idea for these as I recently got a Bionicle polybag with 4 of these pieces: www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=20252&ccName=6106738
Any suggestions? I'd be happy to hear what you think of it!!!

Large Lego modular castle built with the Kingdoms Modular Castle system. ideas.lego.com/projects/116214/comments
A couple of weeks ago, I got my hands on a 1592 Town Square set (Dutch version). I had to restore it a little, and then I got the idea to make a building for my modular street inspired by this set. So this is the result. A corner house, built in the middle ages, the last in its sort, next to the last remaining part of the city walls. Maybe it was the house of the gatekeeper. Today the space behind the gate isn't used as road any more, but houses a little snack corner, where you can eat 'soep en worst' (as in the original 1983 set).
Next to another modular MOC it looks very small, but that is to be expected from a little mediaeval house.
I haven't yet remade the statue and the parade from set 1592.
I always admired Lego's modular buildings (and moc modulars) but never had the money to buy one myself as I kept spending it for parts for other creations. So I had some white bricks left (some from the PaB wall) and decided to finally build my own. As I was somehow limited on bricks it's only 16 studs wide (half a "regular" modular house). This is still a wip as the interior isn't done and the windows need to be changed. Due to my limited variety of white bricks there aren't many special building techniques other than the tower and the owl wearing Loki's helm.
Modular Origami Star (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (2:sqrt3), 6 units, no glue
One of those designs that work great in theory, but not so great in practice. Too many layers meet in the center of the star, so it becomes difficult to assemble it neatly.
This model can also be adapted to a square in two different ways. Both should be somewhere in my photostream around October 2011.

There are 30 models, each from 30 squares.
Fiddling about. Also it was much longer but got cut off in the upload. Weak.

60° Origami Modular (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (3:4), 10, 5 units, no glue
Some other rectangles can also be used with this folding sequence, but 3:4 is about optimal length, all things considered.
Here is a version from longer rectangles:

A few more studies on this theme, this time from rectangles.
Celebrating my 9th piece of modern architecture in the archiBRICKture series, the modular LEGO Store is a colorful and clean building where both adults and kids will find all the joy with the LEGO bricks!
The design rips off all colors except on the front door, above where you can find all the different colors of LEGO bricks, the signature of this brand. Next to the door is the giant wooden sculpture of minifigure, and people will have no difficulty to locate the store!
The new building introduces different curves and round corners to soften the block massing, giving the facade a subtle but interesting look. The curves also go around the facade cut-out for the minifigure statue and the glass wall behind it, which allows sunlight to enter the shop.
There are 3 floors and a rooftop. Inside, you can find all the popular box sets including the latest ones, a Pick-A-Brick corner, a children play area and a LEGO factory machine display. On the rooftop, you can have some refreshments, or share ideas if there is any MOC event.
So now you have a new place to haunt, what are you waiting for?

This was one of the most challenging facades I ever built, but I‘m quite happy how it turned out. Inside you can find also an architect‘s office. This gave me the chance to try some microscale building for the first time.
