Artsand House MOC is a flirt with brutalism. A modern home with art gallery, spa and large bedroom with a garden view. Quadrangular concrete house bodies meet organic nature. A dog is waiting for the owner to come home.
In August 2019 I displayed some of my houses at the Kloss på Kloss exhibition in Hässleholm, Sweden. A visitor asked me if I didn´t have any brutalist houses. I said no and explained that it probably would be too boring. It would be hard to create the dynamics needed to make a modern house MOC interesting. After the exhibition I started thinking and decided to give brutalism a chance. Not purist brutalism, but rather contemporary architecture flirting with brutalism...

My new Guardian Building model made its debut as part of the annual Michigan LEGO Train Club (MichLTC) display at the Henry Ford Museum on November 23rd, 2014. I believe that this display which contains six skyscraper models over 5 feet high is MichLTCs largest LEGO skyline EVER! The display runs from November 24th through January 4th, 2015.
Detroit building models in the layout include the following (*= I built it):
1. Guardian Building*
2. Buhl Building
3. Ford Building*
4. Greater Penobscot Building (includes 1905, 1913, and 1928 Penobscot Buildings)*
5. Savoyard Center*
6. Dime Building / Chrysler House
7. David Stott Building*
8. 25 State Street (former Cunningham Drugs / Colonial Dept. store)*
9. Union Depot train station*
10. 1001 Woodward.

This historic precedent of Colonial Georgian Architecture sits at the heart of Philadelphia's old city center. Independence Hall also played a crucial role in the founding of the United States, as its storied assembly rooms witnessed the signing of both the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and the Constitution in 1787.
This build is part of a larger display I’m developing for exhibition next year, where I’ll be 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.
I currently have several builds in progress for this display, and this is the first one to be completed.
While not directly based on any specific Fabuland set, this watermill draws loose inspiration from 3679 Flour Mill and Shop. It features a weathered stone-and-timber structure beside a millpond, complete with a working waterwheel, lily pads, reeds, and rounded rocks. The water cascades over the rocks to form a small waterfall. I’m especially pleased with the textures throughout—the flowing water, the stonework, and the building itself—as well as a custom spreading tree technique I developed for this scene (and will likely reuse in future Neo Fabuland builds).
This build also showcases my approach to Neo Fabuland windows, using brick-built frames with vinyl-cut sticker panes to echo the distinctive charm of original Fabuland designs.

️ The Colosseum was built both to cement the Flavian dynasty firmly in the hearts & minds of Roman citizens, and to return a portion of Rome back to its people after so much had been swallowed up by Nero's personal residence. ️
🗽 It was the proximity of the enormous bronze Colossus that gave the Flavian Amphitheatre its colloquial name during the middle ages. 🗽

History:
The Pont du Gard is an ancient Roman aqueduct that crosses the Gardon River near the town of Vers-Pont-du-Gard in southern France. The Pont du Gard, built as three tiers of archways to bring water to the city of Nîmes, is the highest of all elevated Roman aqueducts, and one of the best preserved. It was added to UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1985 because of its historical importance.
The bridge has three tiers of arches, stands 48.8 m (160 ft) high, and descends a mere 2.5 centimetres (1 in) – a gradient of only 1 in 18,241 – while the whole aqueduct descends in height by only 12.6 m (41 ft) over its entire length, which is indicative of the great precision that Roman engineers were able to achieve using simple technology. The Nîmes aqueduct was built to channel water from the springs of the Fontaine d'Eure near Uzès to the castellum divisorum (repartition basin) in Nimes
Brick Model Info:
The model has 2097 pieces and measures 65.92 x 16.16 x 20.48 (x,y,z) centimeters, (25.95 x 6.36 x 8,06 inches). The idea is try to respect the real proportion of the aqueduct.
Motivation:
As a fan of the LEGO Architecture series, I was surprised there were no official sets of this monument one of the most important sturcture of the ancient Roman Empire a collossal engineer structure.
I have visit this monument when I was child and I was entranced by his immensity.

Christmas is over and summer is in mind. So I built this small seaside villa where you can feel the sea breeze, watch the boats pass by and enjoy the sun beams dancing on your skin...
The boat was the trickiest part of this build. I hope no one eats it.

This skyscraper never goes out of style! 🇹🇼
I've always admired Taipei 101 from afar, but never seriously considered designing it until about ten days ago. The unique colors and tapered profile made this a worthy challenge. So I struck while the inspiration was fresh, and even ended up designing a brand new pair of wedge plates to make it all work in the end!

My first attempt at modern-ish architecture. The house is designed with a bachelor pad in mind, more specifically a guitarist/musician (hence the guitar collection and piano).
Autumn Stream House MOC is a modern home lying among the trees coloured by autumn. Underneath a small stream is living its own life.
️ The enormous columns of the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus were quarried from Mount Pentelikon just outside Athens! ️
️ This was the very same quarry used to build the Parthenon centuries earlier, and it's a clear example of Rome's unprecedented acumen for importing resources on a monumental scale. ️

This MichLUG display is part of the Detroit Design Festival at the College for Creative Studies- Ford Campus. The display will be up until evening of September 21st. My David Stott building model is next to Scot Thompson's 1 Detroit Center and Chris Leach's Dime Building (Chrysler House).
The SV-Hochhaus is the newly built headquarters of the Süddeutsche Verlag after the company moved out of the city center. It was initially planned as 145-meter-tall landmark in Munich’s industrial east. But the same citizens’ initiative stopping many other high-rise projects in Munich brought this to a halt, too. Following the referendum, the roof height was set to 100 meters, forcing GKK+Architekten to completely rethink their concept. Nonetheless, it was opened in July 2007, after just over one year of construction.
The complex features an intricate façade with sharply angled windowpanes creating a diamond-like effect on the surface. Unfortunately, it was not possible to recreate this mesmerizing effect at this scale.
The model consists of 1,101 pieces and is built in scale 1:650. It features a detailed rendition of the “Atrium”, the building's impressive lobby, which is accessible through a removable roof.
