Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 6 units, no glue
An old star from 2012 which I apparently left way underexplored! Other variations:

All the paper patterns are from the Zen Origami kit:

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:)
Name: -
Designer: Valentina Minayeva (?)
Parts: 32
Paper size: 4,5 х 9,0 (1:2)
Final height: ~ 10,5 х 2,6 cm
without glue

60° Origami Modulars (Maria Sinayskaya)
4, 10, 12 units, no glue
Folded from A rectangles but 2:3 or other rectangles are also possible with this folding sequence.
Here is another section of modular terrain. This time I chose to do a stream, since water is one of the areas where I think modular terrain standards could benefit from an update.
Here are the two modules connected together. I intentionally built the second without looking at the first, and remarkably enough they look pretty good when connected. If this were for a real MOC or display, I would add a rock or two to the road and a few more bits of grass to the river to blend the edges, but even as-is I'm pretty happy with how they connect.

These were test folds made with test paper... but then I thought they turned out good enough and I didn't feel like refolding them :)
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.
Tree technique by Ralf Langer.
Two townhouses inspired by houses in Washington, D.C.. Each house is build as a separate 16x32 modular house. Fully furnished. Computer rendering but buildable if you have the bricks.
Modular Octagonal Origami Box | Design: Hideaki Azuma | Article: origamitutorials.com/octagonal-modular-origami-box/
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.
A collaborative project between my partner and me. They design buildings in sketches on paper, I iterate them into LEGO designs matching the LEGO/Bricktober Mini Modular standard, and together we go looking for parts in local secondhand stores' bulk bins and then Bricklink the rest. We've done 4 so far! The pizza place is an official set, 40181.

32 8x8 mini-modulars designed over 2 months for the 2017 Rebrick Mini Building Madness contest. All purely 3D, no real build, parts in unavailable colors were allowed.
Sorry I haven't posted anything lately but here is something I have been working on! It is a lacrosse store modular building! I have been getting in to building my own "modular style" building to go with the official lego ones. I have also been parting out/ modding/ expanding cafe corner, green grocer, and market street! If you guys have any ideas for modular buildings for me to make put them in the comments! I have a few other mocs coming up to including a lotr moc, some more modular buildings, and a medieval moc!
c&c is welcome

Designed by me
5 units
Squares - 7.5 cm
This model can also be assembled as a kusudama, but the assembly then would be difficult.
UPDATE :
This unit is already designed by Ekaterina Lukasheva
You can see it here - kusudama.me/#/Clematis/Carambola
This one by me is just a variation
Mini Modular version based on a previous MOC. With some slight modifications.
Thought it would be fun to revisit some of my old MOCs and recreate them as Mini Modulars.
Lego modular inspired by rococo architecture. Computer rendering but only existing bricks were used.
This modular building (32 x 32 studs) was inspired by The First Church of Springfield from "The Simpsons."
The interior features six full pews which can accommodate three minifigures each - for a total of 18 parishioners. Using the pipe organ you can sing along to "In the Garden of Eden" by I. Ron Butterfly or you may choose instead to use lectern to advertise for Mr. Plow.
In addition to high-quality, easy-to-follow PDF instructions, I also provide a series of PNG files that give you options to create stickers/custom prints for the church's infamous marquee sign.
Find the instructions here and on Rebrickable.com!

Building the highlands castle, really stimulated my mind, and I was left wondering what would these techniques and styles look like if they were incorporated into the modular castle system.
This is my first attempt at the gatehouse. There is definately a lot i'd like to change, but i like it enough for an innitial upload.
As always if you are interested in the project, go to my lego ideas castle, and support it, so it can become a real set!
After 3 years Con'ing - and watching the likes of Pepa Quinn and Mark Larson pack down their layouts, I set off to try to add some modularity and build more collapsible. So when I was building the Mechhanest I did put some thought to how to compact this down as much as possible.
I also thought about modularizing the system a bit to be able to make this hangar expandable - Though I'll probably make the next section be a single mech bay, instead of two scrawny ones :D
A modular version of this picture frame. Folded from 4 units, each from 1:2 paper.
Modular version is easier to assemble and can be made with smaller paper sheets than the single-sheet version. This model also shows how the proportions of the frame (width, height, depth and breadth) can be varied independently. Instructions can be found here.
Inspired by models by Hans-Werner Guth who, as I later learned, has designed an almost identical model. Given the simplicity, I assume an exactly identical design must also have already been folded by others before. His work in turn is based on the designs of Thoki Yenn.
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.
For a long time I wanted to build/design a railway station, but it had to be designed upon the following conditions:
- only cheap parts to be used while still having a good looking design
- fit in with the modular buildings
- the station being modular as well
To achieve the first point I tried to use mostly parts that are often available in Lego stores. Therefore most of the station building can be built with only 1x2 and 1x1 tan bricks (not considering bricks for snot). Also the 1x4x3 white windows are often offered on the PaB wall, so I decided to build a glass canopy for the facade and the platforms as well. The masonry bricks used for the platforms can be changed with normal bricks, therefore only very few pieces might be costly (or not).
The second goal wasn't hard to fulfill: the building is 32 bricks long and 16 bricks wide. The second floor can be added several times to make it higher. Therefore you can put it next to Lego's modular buildings and it will fit nicely.
The station is modular as well: You don't have to build the canopy above the platforms, but it's a nice addition. The platform is divided into several sections, which results in the station being able to be enlarged in width and length.
The station design is simple but effective and isn't based on any real building. The small towers aren't really necessary, but they are a nice addition. I got the idea for these as I recently got a Bionicle polybag with 4 of these pieces: www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=20252&ccName=6106738
Any suggestions? I'd be happy to hear what you think of it!!!
