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.

Well, probably not my best folding - test versions)
A Modular Art Deco lego 1920's / 1930's style Department store loosely based on an Egyptial 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.
Comments welcome!
"Root of Tree" modular origami version (fractal binary tree)

paper: several 1:√3 rectangles of glassine paper, various multiple sizes, connected without glue.

After I designed a single-sheet kirigami of the same subject, I tried working on a "pure" origami, modular version, in order to submit it to the last CDO @origamicdo origami design contest, themed "square root of three".
It could not have been completed in time without the help and support of @serena.menger and @alelamio , and it was therefore presented as a group project. In particular, Serena worked out a better solution for connecting the units, and she folded and assembled plenty of them!

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 :)
Paper: 15 cm
Modules: 4
Model: Tomoko Fuse
Book: Spiral: Origami | Art | Design p. 139-142
I wanted to redo this, as the paper for my first one was a bit too thick. Hence larger, thiner paper. Two sheets were a pink to violet and blue fading Harmony paper.
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)

leftover rectangles, 8 units, no glue
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.

This modular origami model is made with a module which is so old no one knows the creator's name any longer. This temari was created with 480 modules, made from note cube paper cut to 1.75 inches by 3.5 inches. Keep the ratio 1:2. The diagrams are in "3D Origami Step-by-Step Illustrations" by Japan Publications

I wanted the bike shop to be in a more industrial looking building, so neither of my buildings inspired by the official Bike Shop set fit the bill. The ground floor has helmets, skateboards, and a little repair area, while the top two floors have bicycles, motor bikes and scooters.

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.

I always wanted to try making a modular using 1x2 plates in mixed colours, but have never had enough plates in the right colours to do a full size modular building. Then I saw the LEGO Ideas contest to celebrate 90 years of TLG and the idea formed to try and do a midi-scale version (somewhere between minifigure and micro scale). The base for this build is 8x16 studs, so it is one-quarter of the baseplate used for a standard 16-stud wide modular building.
It is modular as the floors come apart. However, the way I did the windows for this version means that it's not so pretty on the inside.
I would love to do a row of townhouses like this in different colours. Once I can accumulate a few more plates!
PS: Sarah Beyer (@betweenbrickwalls) has mastered the use of mixed plates in her gorgeous buildings, but I want to also do a shout out to Jan M. (@wooootles) whose “Avenue Residences” is one of the first buildings that I recall that used this technique (and which is still one of my all time favourite builds).

Modular Origami Star (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (2:sqrt3), 6 units, no glue
//The model works with squares too but looks a bit ugly on the back side:(//
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.

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.
Here is another picture:
