Zoom in

This house was my project over spring break in April 2012.

About this creation

This is one of the most detailed houses I have made so far. Usually I build a really big house for multiple minifigures, but this time I decided to make a small house for just one minifigure. I added a lot of detail in the small kitchen which I was proud of. I also invented my own fence design since I don't have enough fence pieces to go around the perimeter of the backyard. I made sure that this house had removeable floors also. This is definitly one of my favorite LEGO creations I have made so far.

This is the back of the house, you can see the big windows in the bedroom, the garden, basketball hoop, and the dog house.

Awesome house. Lots of detail and lots of room unlike official LEGO houses :)

I love the confidence you have to build at scale with clearly limited bricks. Embrace the rainbow building technique. You should look at the architecture of Hundertwasser, you might find some inspiration there for your building style I think, I for one would love to see you take on one of his apartment blocks: http://www.hundertwasser.at/english/oeuvre/arch/arch_projekte.php

Great interior. As to the color: Striping or organizing the colors into designs or sections works really well.

Quoting Ru Corder Not bad at all! Obviously the colors are off, but you have good reason for that. The details in the interior are especially nice.

Thank you!

Quoting Space Gypsy . Great work. But like Alex said, try using fewer colours. But you do have potential.

Thanks! You're right, it would look better if I had paid attention to color. I don't have enough LEGO pieces to do that though, I only have around 18000. I just have to figure out a way to make my parents let me buy more LEGO sets.

Great effort here. I was initially deterred by the mutli-colourdness, but had a look anyway, and was impressed by the well thought out rooms and furnishings. A great effort.

Quoting Alex B I like it!!! But one thing make it one color this creation has a lot of potential and it could be excellent if you made it one color!

Thanks! I don't have enough pieces to make it all one color right now but I plan to keep buying more LEGO so someday I will.
