I designed this with the Parisian Restaurant in mind, but it is made to be totally modular and used with any Modular from Lego or custom built.
The central part of my idea is the park, which in turn can be used as a larger park or two smaller ones, on the likes of the Lego Pet Shop modular.
But there’s more! It can be connected to extra pavements and these can also be used with your modulars, to create squares, make a standard modular look like a corner one, or create your own and unique combination. Did I mention that there's also a colorful mosaic?
There's a bunch of accessories, from a fire hydrant to a comfy bench, and some of them are used to disguise the standard Technic brick used to connect modulars.
And if that was not enough, you will get a lot of accessories to make your city stem to life!
There's a newspaper kiosk, designed to remind the Parisian ones, a crepes rickshaw, a trash trolley, a monumental statue, two wonderfully flowered trees and a big oak tree to give some shade in the park.
And then several other smaller accessories that can be used with this set or all over your modular town.
And, last but not least, there’s 7 minifigs (and a dog) to animate the town!
If you are a Lego Modulars fan, you will want to have all of these in your Lego town.

This Lego clock tower modular is inspired by Prague Astronomical Clock in Prague, Czech Republic. Besides the clock tower there are also three small houses. Total width of all buildings is 48 studs and about 4100 bricks were used. Computer rendering but only existing bricks were used.

My latest experiment in something other than standard modular buildings. The alley features a dead end, some boxes and a dumpster.

Folded from a sheet of crumpled (VOG) paper glued to a sheet of Japanese origami foil.
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).

Front and reverse sides.
Similar to these ones:
I wish I could do this in real bricks (with some variety added, of course). It would mean having to order a couple thousand 1x1 plates and headlight bricks, though.
After 3 attempts I made a decent looking modular building for my city. I do need to do more on the exterior, and currently the interior doesn't exsists yet.
Funny thing is I went for a modern looking building but somehow ended up with this
I've refined the modular building quite a lot. The corner pieces are solid to provide bracing but all others components are totally modular.
Santa Claus? This early?
Oh well, you never believed in that "all in one night" nonsense, did you?
Uhm, no, not really.
Okay, put the gifts where you'll remember an christmas.
Yes, can do.
Great. You haven't seen me *flash*
What was this? I'm feeling a bit dizzy...

That black laser sword handle with a crystal is supposed to be a neuralyzer, like in the Men in Black movies.
This is the back door of the second house of Birch Books, and this silly little picture took me about an hour. I hate indoor photography.

60° Origami Modular (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (1:2), 4 units, no glue
Some other variations of this unit.
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
The bigger stars are folded from double bronze rectangles (2:sqrt3) and the smaller one from bronze (1:sqrt3). Similar designs to the previous ones, with more interesting reverse sides.
6 units for each, no glue

Here are some other folds made with paper from the same pack:

I have to say, it's a great idea to keep the number of colors per pack limited to just 5 or 6. This way you have a nice palette with colors that work together and you have enough sheets of each color per pack. Ideal for modular origami!
I wanted to see how the Ollivanders section of the official Diagon Alley (75978) would look if it were beefed up to a modular size. The most obvious change is the addition of the third floor of Ollivanders, but obviously the interiors of all floors have been updated. I will probably be tinkering with them in the future.

Paper: Hexagons cutted from 20 cm, 15 cm, 10 cm, 7.5 cm and 5 cm Glassine
Modules: 5
Based on a Model by Tomoko Fuse
Wanted to redo this star for some time with more layers. To fit one hexagon into the other, I had to fold the other tips outside too and couldn't use Tomoko Fuse's locking mechanism. Depending on the size of the inner hexagon, the layers are moving a bit.
60° Origami Modulars (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (3:4), double bronze, 12 units, no glue
Other rectangles are also possible with this folding sequence.
60° Origami Modular (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 12, 10, 4 units, no glue
All three units are of slightly different sizes.
My very first modular house. My entry to the Modular MOC Madness competition of LowLUG. This built is based on an existing house in my home town Wageningen. It used to be a bakery in my childhood.

Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 6 units, no glue
Out of these three stars one features just a single pattern (star), another shows two (star+star) and the third combines 3 patterns (star+pinwheel+wreath).
Other stars with a single pattern (pinwheel, wreath):

Other stars with two elements combined (star+wreath, star+pinwheel, pinwheel+wreath):

There are some other combinations and with big enough squares one can go even deeper, adding more elements on top.
I used 7.5 cm kami paper by Peter Keller. Same pack as here:
This is a new version of my Modular Railway Station. The model consists of a main building and three platform sections.
Lego bookstore modular inspired by A.Masow Architects concept store. There are four apartments above the bookstore. The modular house can be opened at the back and is fully furnished. About 6500 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used. Reference images.
60° Origami Modulars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 12, 5, 4 units, no glue
The units in the top picture are of different sizes (the farthest is the biggest). I have 5 such units actually, but folding all of those does not make much sense:)
Modular Origami Star (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 8 units, no glue
An improved version of the star from this picture (the one on the right).
Modular Origami Star (Maria Sinayskaya)

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 :)
Make your very own Test Chamber out of LEGO, in any way that you want! First build the modular frame to the dimensions you choose, and then fill the walls and floor with tiles, platforms, buttons and more! Finally, add accessories such as turrets, cubes, small buttons, signs, cameras and most importantly, test subjects!
Includes four minifigures, Chell and 3 Aperture Science Sentry Turrets.
Completely modular design allows you to redesign the chamber for different tests.
Solve button puzzles with the Weighted Storage Cube, or dodge the laser sights of an array of turrets!
Use the 4 different pattern tiles to create any 2 digit number for the level sign.
Discover a hidden Ratman den behind the testing chamber walls.
Standard Testing Chamber arrangement is over 10" (25cm) long, 5" (12cm) deep and 6" (15cm) tall!
Combine multiple Modular Testing Chamber sets and your own module designs for unlimited variations. The possibilities are endless!
Parts Count: ???

The Modular Assault Gauntlet (MAG) is a wearable combat system. The MAG operates with a plug-in firing system connected to a touch-activated trigger on the palm of the glove. Weapon systems are then attached to the wrist of the gauntlet via a mounted picatinny rail. One of the currently available variants; the MAG-GL, utilizes a modified M203 grenade launcher along with a laser sight so a soldier is not required to have a grenade launcher attached to their rifle; thus freeing up their rifle for other potential combat systems. Other additional weapon systems are currently in research, such as a taser attachment for law enforcement.

This was a concept I've been thinking up for a the past few weeks. I'm still not sure how practical this would be irl but it's cool as hell.
Made from; a SI-DAN wrist watch, a Brickarms M203 grenade launcher, a Brickarms Tactical PDW, and a lego hand.
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)

Maybe not the very best option to showcase the design but I had to fold these stars AND I wanted to test the paper, so there you go:)
