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.
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.

some other rectangles are also posiible
Variations of the older ones
My design for a modular train station. Lengthened and enlarged.

Fiddling about. Also it was much longer but got cut off in the upload. Weak.

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?
LEGO modular post office.
6455 parts.
Building instruction is available at: rebrickable.com/users/peedeejay/mocs/
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.

Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 6 units, no glue
This star, slightly different reverse:
The dodecahedron has, like the cube , 3-fold axes. I can put four of them on the four 3-fold axes of the tetrahedron and translate and rotate them towards the center.
Folder: Dirk Eisner
Designer of the units: Dirk Eisner
120 units
last unit: 08.11.2012
More pictures of the model along the tetrahedral symmetry:
4 Dodecahedra (3-fold-axis backside)
Edit: I have published diagrams for the single dodecahedron in the convention book of
Origami Deutschland, 2009, Berlin-Erkner. The paper size here: 1:1.33.
I posted a work-in-progress pic a while ago, but never got around to posting the finished sewer. Here it is. It's a little slimmed down from the WIP pic, but I find it very satisfying and playable. All the rooms are modular, so they can be linked together in any order. I took a lot of cues from the official Sewer Lair set, but wanted to expand it and make it a little bit more of a complete home for the Turtles, as well as accentuate the idea that it's underground.

A modular school.
Building instruction is available at: rebrickable.com/users/peedeejay/mocs/
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.

The 4-pointed star can be braided on both sides to make a coaster:
This castle is built from small modular pieces that are 4x8 a 8x8 studs. This system was designed to allow even young builders to quickly and easily build, enjoy and then put away the castle they wanted to have that day. This is the Kingdoms Lego Modular Castles System. Please let Lego know you would like to see this as a set by voting for it at ideas.lego.com/projects/116214
Kingdoms Modular Lego Castle To see a video demonstration of this system go to www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M6T5OBxByM
I have submitted this modular Lego castle system to Lego Ideas as the Kingdoms Modular Castle. If you like this system, please vote for it.
