Legos Form Mini Architectural Spaces - My Modern Metropolis

If you thought Legos had no place in fine art or photography then you haven't seen these intriguing photos by Sao Paolo, Brazil-based Valentino Fialdini. For his latest exhibition, the photographer showed off a set of empty, bright and sometimes colorful rooms and corridors all made with Legos! With sun streaming through windows and shadows cast in just a certain way, it almost seems as if you're looking at real rooms. They're, in fact, small architectural spaces created by the photographer himself. Comment by sAm yesterday
http://www.thecrafttutor.com/2012/02/make-lego-jewelry.html I have a lot of experience at jewelry making and bead stringing and I wanted to combine my beads with the colorful Legos. My ideas were plentiful; all I needed to do was to “score” some Legos (hopefully NOT with my feet) and learn how to pierce holes in them. Since I hang around with a bunch of little boys, Legos tend to be a constant part of the “décor” around here. While the boys are working on their creations, I’m thinking more in terms of creating jewelry out of those colorful little bits of plastic.

Mindblowing Lego art

Nathan Sawaya is so much obsessed with Lego that he left his lawyer job in NY to become a master lego builder. Sawaya now has a studio in the big Apple with over 1.5 million Lego bricks which he uses to create jaw dropping structure like these.

Sometimes I wonder how we get any work done at all. I have been searching sporadically for some early patent drawings of vacuum tubes (something to do with a tattoo for my spouse) and am on high alert for the beauty and elegance of those drawings. And then Flavorwire has the nerve to post a story about Stiknord , the tumblr blog curated by the Kolding School of Design in Denmark. The site celebrates a Northern aesthetic. http://melissaeastondesign.com/blog/?p=5863

The Fox Is Black » The Millenium Falcon constructed with 3D Legos in 3 minutes

I know you guys love Legos, so I had to share this video created by Francisco Prieto, who’s created a 3D modeled version of the Lego Millenium Falcon. Taking over 3 years, Francisco created the video with 3DS Max and V-Ray, using 3,572,568 polygons and 670 hours of rendering time. To say this was a serious undertaking would be an understatement, clearly Francisco loves him some Legos and Star Wars. This is kind of magical to behold, especially the detailing that goes into the upper portions of the ship. I’ve also realized I would never want to try and build one of these for myself, I’d probably go nuts.

Lego Star Wars Invade London by UK Legomasters | Swag So Fresh

We have seen plenty of items constructed from Legos, including Star Wars themed objects in the past. It looks like more Star Wars Legos have hit the scene just in time to help generate some buzz from the opening of the Star Wars Miniland at Legoland Windsor. Several UK Legomaster have collaborated on a new series of Star Wars Lego miniatures invading London. There are several really cool scenes, with plenty of Stormtroopers present.

Two Toronto teens sent their own minifig spaceward using a homemade weather balloon and a hand-sewn parachute. Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad, both 17, sent a Lego guy and four cameras on a 97-minute ride up to 78,000 feet, and then successfully retrieved the photos.

Lego Minifig in Space of the Day - TDW Geeks

Lego Minifigs in Space of the Day: The NASA Atlas V rocket due to set off for Jupiter this Friday with the Juno probe will also be carrying three unique Lego minifigs . The special-edition aluminum Lego characters represent the Roman deities Juno and Jupiter and the astronomer Galileo. The idea came from NASA, and Lego produced the figures and footed the $15,000 bill for the project.

Brickd - a blog featuring the best in Lego design

Who doesn’t love LEGO? (I certainly have a soft spot , and even believe it to be an apt metaphor for combinatorial creativity .) Since LEGO’s dawn in the 1940s, more than 4 billion minifigs have been manufactured — that’s more than one for every two people on the planet — and the love of LEGO has become so cross-cultural and enduring that it might even be called a cult.

Impressive Lego Sculpture of Albert Einstein - My Modern Metropolis

This past October, Legoland Florida opened to the public, targeting families with children ages 2 to 12. With about 50 million bricks used, it is the fifth and largest Legoland in the world with 50 attractions in 10 themed areas. According to Legoland Florida Master Builder Jason Miller, two of the biggest construction projects at the park were a brontosaurus near the park's entrance and a bust of Albert Einstein which greets visitors at the Imagination Zone, each of which required six to seven builders working for four months to complete.
