The Copenhagen Zoo is getting pandas 🙂 In a collaboration between the Zoo and the Copenhagen LEGO Store I was asked to build a model of the home built for the pandas, called the Panda House, to be exhibited in the LEGO Store. This build is now complete and I can share about what I’ve…
In this tutorial we will look into how the thatched roof from my Chocolate Box Cottage is built. We will not be constructing a whole roof, but rather just look at how the aesthetic elements are constructed. How these are used to construct a roof then depends on how the house it will attached to…
Hi everyone! This is a tutorial showing how the tooth roof technique used in my build, Element Experimentation: Roof, works. The purpose of the tutorial is not to build a complete roof, but rather to just showcase the technique so that you can then use it in whatever future build you are planning. Let’s get…
Covering two pieces in one build here: 15070 – Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Tooth Vertical in LBG 50950 – Slope, Curved 3 x 1 No Studs in DBG The roof technique is basically what I thought was interesting here. Then I figured that a stand-alone roof is not that exciting to look at,…
This was sort of an exercise in using organic shapes for a building. Though complicated, the concave surfaces and the three pronged shape were manageable. Finishing up the top by fitting a roof was a whole different matter though, and I’m not actually very happy with how it turned out. Ok, but not great. Still,…
I really like building micro scale landscapes, and most of the time my focus is on the nature part of a build – how to make it look natural and organic. Most of the time, however, nature builds center around something, often something man made. For this reason I decided to do some experimentation with…
I have not really tried building mini modular buildings before, although I have seen many wonderful designs made by other talented builders. But recently, Rebrick announced a mini modular competition with some rather spectacular prizes, so I decided to have a go at it 🙂 I knew I wanted the facade to be quite intricate…
While dabbling in microscale for other projects I decided to build a micro of the cathedral in my home town. The cathedral is basically an old design of mine with some minor changes, but adding the surroundings made quite a difference. This build was featured by The Brothers Brick.

Controversy is brewing in Micropolis! The mayor has spent a sizeable chunk of the yearly budget on a new extravagant skyscraper and the critics have been brutal. – ‘We need apartments for the general public, not outrageously expensive office spaces that benefits no one but the very rich’, complains a spokesman for the political opposition.…
The red cottage with white corners has always been the epitome of the Swedish idyll. This is an entry to Swebrick’s Micropolis competition in which it claimed 2nd place! This build was featured by The Brothers Brick. You can read more about it here.
