   the last (so far) of my doorway studies, finished last year, but photographed this week. based loosely on a photograph of the doorway of the house used for the newer version of “the stepford wives” which i found in our local newspaper. the flowering bushes on the lower level were seen years ago on one of ondrew hartigan’s moc. wish those flowers came in a wider variety of colours, shades of blue, shades of yellow. sigh.
 
i was especially happy with shingle effect on the roofline, though the tiles fell off frequently during transit.
   

enjoy as you flickr through the set.

in keeping with my newest building theme, i continued the doorway studies. there are many advantages to doing these studies: i get to use a variety of architectural styles, a wide of variety of colours, they take up much less space to store than my conventional mocs and displaying them is so simple and hassle-free. there is no consistent scale, i just worked with whatever i thought worked well.

the next 4 doorway studies:


   the french shoe boutique (“shoe-ette” = chouette meaning cute)
   
   the louvred doorway of france
 

   the baronial doorway
   
   the industrial modern (is there such a term?) doorway

enjoy or flickr away.

more doorways to come.

last year i dismantled one of my favourite creations, st. paul de vence. i had intended to keep it around but i was going through a building slump and decided it had to be undone. as i did this, i realized i was more emotionally attached to it than anticipated, so i couldn’t bring it down to the baseplates. instead, i decided to keep the more interesting bits of it, the doorways. i boxed them in to be able to display them quickly. as i was doing this, i realized a quick way to get back into the building groove was to do more doorway studies.

here are the 4 main doorways from the medieval village.


   the belltower
   
   a village house
 

   the auberge door
   
   the auberge window

enjoy.

As always, your designs are wonderful, Deborah! I particularly like the baronial doorway. Very clever use of elements, like the rock halves as planters and the just-barely fanned out elements in the transom.

What parts are you using to get the diamond pane class behind the mullions?

-Bill

thank you for your kind words! the paned glass is the glass from some of the harry potter sets http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=2494pb06. it’s a great piece but sometimes you have to hide the painted detail at the bottom of it.

Some very tasty ideas to borrow here. Very nice!

I am trying to get away from using Lego doors and build them myself in a similar manner that you have.

Best, Jonathan

thanks, jonathan. as much as i wish lego would make more different styles of doors and windows, i’m enjoying the challenge of building them myself.
