In response to a discussion started by AK_Brickster on www.classic-castle.com, I've been inspired to reimagine modular terrain standards like base8 and the Classic-Castle City standard. Here are some shots of a road I've built with some ideas of my own.
My modular book is now available on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Art-Modular-Origami-Joseph-Hwang/dp/B091NW...
The inspiration for this one has been pretty broad. You could look at pretty much any new place in the general area and say it had a part in the design. The design was mostly spur of the moment "it worked" and "eureka" moments put together to form this monster. This is my newest modular, which doesn't have a name but could be codenamed Fortress NEO since the MOC named Fortress was "sacrificed" to make this, and much of the tan 1*3 brick and the entire baseplate from it are in use on the right hand, corner module. 3 stories, two divisions, ground floor has tenants for an Irish Pub, tapas place and a furniture store which, until I find doors, is "robbed" and will be host to a crime scene diorama. This will be the second centerpiece for the Christmas layout and a companion to the Overpass from last year.
NOTE: There were errors on the Sand Blue side of the tower that were corrected.
3 modular builds for coffee, pizza and ice-cream. I guess it is time for something cold. All builds have the same Basic structure but difference is in the detail. The back alley can me lighted up and the pizza oven burns. Although the most popular business, it seems to be a coverup for something shady.
Exterior of adobe complexes at Taos Pueblo in New Mexico (circa 1000 - 1450). Houses finished with stucco façade over adobe bricks (earth, straws, water).
Sight of a home located on the side of Hlaukkwima (South House), opposite of the Hlaauma across from the Red Willow Creek.

60° Origami Modulars (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles 2:3, 3:4, 1:1.44, 10, 12 units, no glue
Tried same construction method with different rectangles.
60° Origami Modular (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles 1:√3, 5 units, no glue
Shorter rectangles can also be used:
Modular Origami Ring (Maria Sinayskaya)
//or is it a coaster? I'm never sure//
rectangles 1:√3, 6 units, no glue
The model has a nice non-sliding-out lock - which will be tricky to diagram, if it ever comes to that.
60° Origami Modulars (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles 1:2 (the central one), 2:3 (two small ones), no glue
Some shorter/longer rectangles will work too with this folding sequence.
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.

This is my latest modular. its a simplified version of the one that was published in OUSA 2010 convention book.
Enjoy, and please post images if you do fold it!
The same unit with a different final makes the Elegance model.
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.
Ancient Roman temples are among the most visible archaeological remains of Roman culture, and are a significant source for Roman architecture. Their construction and maintenance was a major part of ancient Roman religion.

Well I can't remember how to make Flickr put photos in the order I want, which is annoying. Anyway check through the next four or five photos to see how this is expandable. I've got 8 x 16 internals now, but it can be easily expanded to an arbitrary size using 16 x 16 plates or 8 x 16 plates.
Modular Origami Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles, 6 units, no glue
Same folding sequence, different rectangles. The longer the rectangle, the larger the hole in the center.

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 modularity means that you can build a huge variety of keeps- part of the goal here is that if you want, just by buying multiple copies of this set you could easily create your own theme, complete with wizards towers, palaces, fortresses and who knows what else!

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.

simple, yet deadly.. endless units to build as big as you like modular. mine is made of 59 units (22 yellows, 22 purples and 15 blues).
you dont have to stick to my proportion, you can start with a square and see what happens.
Modular Origami Star (Maria Sinayskaya)
rectangles (2:sqrt3), 6 units, no glue
The star looks the same on both sides.
Nice pattern in the middle, but I'm not entirely happy with the layer distribution, the points are a bit too thick.
My modular flower made from Peter Keller's origami paper (colour scheme "Herbst", Pack Autumn/Fall at etsy).
Peter Keller asked me to test his new paper for modular origami. Sheets are 5*5 cm. It is a bit small for me. I prefer size larger than 7*7 cm for my kusudamas from squares. However, this paper is very well suited to modular flowers or modular stars. For starters, I have chosen flowers.
The paper folds very well and has no damage on the creases.
For the STG (Starfighter Telephone Game). Though I am still not sure who this should ship to, and we are ironing that out, I wanted to post the images.
The goal was to make it modular like the original Blacktron line and this build is exactly what I hoped it would be when I signed up for this round like three years ago. Lol.
It has ten different, completely interchangeable modules, which can combine in a ridiculously high number of ways.
I am extremely proud of this build and it will be very difficult to part with, but I believe whoever ends up with it will be very very pleased.

Modular Stars (Maria Sinayskaya)
squares, 8 units, no glue
This one is from the same family. First-born.
This origami star frenzy is kind of getting ridiculous, don't you think:D
