Court house 13905 Lego® Bricks Design by Stefano Mapelli ©2021 Stebrick www.stebrick.com Video:
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.
This 146-meter-tall office tower marks the end of the humble skyscraper boom in early 2000’s Munich. It is the tallest building in Bavaria, only surpassed by broadcasting facilities. It was completed in 2004 and designed by German architectural firm Ingenhoven Architekten.
The unwieldy name (that is: Munich Uptown Building) derives from its address in the northern region of Munich where it’s situated close to other high-rises such as the BMW-Vierzylinder and Highlight Towers.
Its current main tenant is Spanish communications company Telefónica, hence the giant O’s on the west and east facade of the tower. The high-rise itself is surrounded by several multi-story convention centers and offices.
The model consists of 2,787 pieces (649 of which are foliage) and is built in scale 1:650.
Because my bricks have been 1000 km away from me during the last half year I started to fiddle around with LDD. Although it is of course not the same experience, the unlimitation in part-color-combination has some merit. And the 90322 Skeletonhead fits quite well as the quadriga, doesn't it?
Feel free to guess the identity of this building! Its a Detroit building north of downtown. Either from this photo or subsequent ones as construction progresses.
This is a front corner module for the new building. The previous section will attach on the right to complete the east side of the building making a total of five bays.
A 'Green Grocer' variant MOC, with a restaurant on the first floor and 3 apartments, roof access to all residents.
Full front elevation.
A view down the narrow 6th Ave. This is a very old part of town, distinguished by its yellow buildings.
A modern house for a family with kids. Fully furnished. Architecture is inspired by functionalism and clean lines. About 6800 bricks. Computer rendering but buildable if you have the bricks.
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.
This view shows how the slanted side wall of the gate is put into place with the hinged foundation piece. Historically, a city wall would've extended along either side of the gate, but in modern-day Seoul, the walls have all been long torn down. The city wall was used to keep outsiders - and wild tigers - out.
📜 Subura Minor picks up where we left off in the fairly dense neighborhood of the ancient city, with a comparatively smaller slice of land area. While smaller geographically, this locale was considerably outsized in its role as a growing administrative center during the later years of the Roman Empire. As the imperial sphere of influence shifted east toward Constantinople, the office of the Urban Prefect grew beyond its managerial purview over the city and its territories, to that of de facto governor during the emperors' increasingly prolonged absences. As a result, the new administrative state expanded to encompass most surrounding buildings across an area of roughly 46,000 square meters; a far larger chunk of the nondescript domūs and insulae of Subura than are represented in this section alone.

This is my personal version of a MOC of Pyramids of Gyza in Egypt in Lego Architecture style.
I know... It is not so difficult to build a pyramid in LEGO :)
So I tried to imagine its context in the desert, with a little oasis and other little pyramids really existing in Gyza.
In truth, the oasis is my wife's contribution! :)
For the addiction of the Sphinx, I have to thank Kristi, a MOCcer here on Flickr, who enlightened me about how to build it in an amazing way!
Set 21013 was introduced in June 2012, just in time for the Summer Olympic Games in London a month later. For months, it was completely sold out at Lego's official stores and Lego's online store. After a bit of delay, I finally got my hands on it and built away. Despite being rather modest at 346 pieces, it consists of lots of small repetitive pieces and is therefore rated at age 12+; it took me 100 minutes or so to assemble.
Set 21016 was also introduced in June 2012, becoming the first Asian building in the Lego Architecture series; Sungnyemun is Seoul's historic main southern gate.
These are the first two non-US buildings in my Lego Architecture collection.

Lego's Architecture line includes a very nice rendition of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, built in Mill Run, Pennsylvania in the 1930s and famed for incorporating the terrain and the waterfall as major architectural elements. The Lego version, rated at Age 16+ and consisting of 811 pieces, costs $99.99 and is a very nice 3-hour build.
A key feature of this set is that the terrain is one separate build, and the house itself is several separate builds. Now the lower, middle, and upper floor, with their trademark balconies, are stacked into place. I still need to build a small roof piece and slide it on top of the upper floor, then slide the whole house into the foundation, to complete the set.

MOC of the first post-modern house. Please support my creation on LEGO ideas to become a real Lego Architecture set: ideas.lego.com/projects/169503
Thank you!!!
At just 57 pieces, the Space Needle set is the simplest in the Architecture series - and most likely the simplest Lego set I am ever likely to assemble. Despite that, it is not easy, due to its unusual shapes and a need to cut three of the tower's legs to the proper length.
The set's contents. The unusual design of the Space Needle itself also means unusual pieces for this set - rather than standard Lego bricks, I see round dishes, plus toothed gear wheels and connector pieces from the Technic series.
There are four tubes supplied, three of which need to be cut to the proper length of 5 1/4 inches. There is a 1:1 scale diagram of the cut in the instruction booklet, which also includes historical information on the real Space Needle. The fourth tube is a spare.
