Here's a Paris/London inspired Victorian building with the far side converted into modern flats. The red and tan building is occupied by a gallery/cafe. The scale is smaller than Minifig, with 1 flat LEGO plate height equivalent to about a foot.
About this creation
This above shot shows some roof detail and a bit of perspective:
Second displays the modern flats which occupy the far side of the old structure, using some familiar colours in an attempt to harmonise with the previous style.
Finally some roof detail which took me a long time, this is the best I could manage to create a half-dome almost.
