60° Origami Modular (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles 2:√3, 4 units, no glue
Not a very good unit (the flap is too short). Don't know how I ended up folding it three times with different papers:)
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 8 units, no glue
These stars look exactly like these two (well, from the front), but the unit and the assembly method are quite different:

I still like the first version more. Easier to make and prettier on the reverse.
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 :)
Compared to the other modular buildings so far, which are usually spread out over roughly three days, this one took three weeks to build. I found it hard to find the motivation to complete it since it's such a departure from the rest of the modular line. When the announcement was made I had my doubts about this fitting in with the rest of the modular buildings, and even in the promotional photos this is blatantly an American building slapped on a European street.
The exterior was the biggest let down for this build. The brick work in the building could have been done with masonry bricks and would have achieved a similar look and reduced the part count, allowing for enclosed stairs leading to the upper floors of the building. Instead, we're left with what looks like a scaffold structure holding up the awning and exposed concrete stairs if you display this without another building beside it. The awning also suggests that nothing should be put on that side, given that it flows around the edge and to the rear of the building, which adds to the confused end product. I think the The interior however is full of wonderful small details that I'll have to incorporate into the city in some way.
This is all personal opinion of course, but I really hope the modular line either sticks with full width or dedicated corner buildings, and keeps them similarly styled, or at least close enough that they can be displayed with the rest of the line. I suppose we'll find out when they announce the next building though, but for now the demolition team will be busy parting this out and putting them to better use throughout my city.
A Modular Art Deco lego 1920's / 1930's style Department store loosely based on an Egyptian theme of the time. Many of these buildings still exsist (Although many are sadly in disrepair) throughout the UK and have seen many examples online from the USA, Austrailia and NZ.
In the UK these faience style buildings were built in the 20/30s by names such as Woolworths, Burtons the tailors, M & S and the Co-operative just to name a few.
I finished the exterior of the building before building the corner bank but have now just got round to doing the interior.
It is on 3 floors and completely modular.
The ground floor has fine furniture. The first floor has ladies perfumes and cosmetics and the top floor is a toy department.
The is also a delivery vehicle.
Apologies for the quality of some of the pictures. I have a poor camerphone and the walls do not reflect light well.
There is also a picture of which the building in loosely based on.
Comments welcome!

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?

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.

silver (on the left) & bronze rectangles (on the right)
This photo was taken more than one year ago but I don't remember if I ever posted it... Anyway, the curious thing I found out is that some Stimorol wrappers are "silver" (1:sqrt2 or A format) rectangles, while others are "bronze" (1:sqrt3)! Well, maybe not _precisely_, but close enough to fold those special models that require silver/bronze rectangles.

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.

My little town of modular Lego buildings now has a town hall and a town square. The hall is a remodelling of the mayor's mansion I built last year. I have combined it witthe the front porch of my now defunct market hall. There's a wedding taking place and the bride and groom are just comming down the stairs. In front of the town hall lies a little park with a hexangular fountain.
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.

My first attempt at a modular weapon for PincerCommander's contest. Don't really think I'll continue down the modular path, I prefer good ol' super glue. Also, sorry for the crappy lighting, I still haven't gotten a light box set up so this was literally taken in my lap with my phone.
MOC: Modular LEGO Store.
The original LEGO Brand Retail Store set also has these skylights, but in this case they're actually transparent and will let light into the building. I also scaled them up from 2x3 studs on the original to 2x4, as that's a more iconic LEGO brick.

I wanted to build a modular corner building. I tried to build in the style of the Dutch 19th century architect C. Peters, wgho has mainly built a lot of post offices, in a sort of gothic-revival eclectical style. Only the ground floor has an interior.
