Some work still to be done. Steps for instance, and I need to fill in the space around the doors.




No interior to speak of, either. And the windows are so darn clean you can hardly see them.


Thanks for looking!

Model I made of Caesarea Amphitheatre



One of my favorite places

You can see the real thing in

The old stage is ruin and there is a modern one, a lot of great singers from Israel still perform there

This staircase is inspired by the spiral staircase in the new set Pet Shop 10128
In the new set it is a spiral staircase based on a 1 x 4 plate.
(see e.g. this pic on
http://www.eurobricks.com/bonaparte/images/petshop/pet-10.jpg)

I experimented with different size plates
and came up with this staircase based on a 2 x 6 plate.

I decorated it with a colourfull carpet
and made convenient banisters/rails.

That’s a beautiful rendition! I saw a youtube of the house a while back and was impressed then. The idea that you did it justice in LEGO... very nice!

Can’t wait to see it in person!

   much of 2009 was spent working on my newest house moc, a replica of an actual house in suffolk, england. the award-winning design of the sliding house features a motorized shell that moves over two buildings to create a variety of forms, living spaces and lighting possibilities. the owners - ross russell and sally morris - have a very detailed website http://therussellhouse.org> with floor plans and elevations which i used for scale and proportions, but i took some artistic license when i felt the need and desire. after finding my moc on flickr, they recently added some photos of my creation!
 

   many of the interior and exterior furnishings were published over the past few months on my flickr photostream.
   

many thanks to fellow lug member jason allemann for helping with the motorization, other members for loaning me pieces and to nelug member dave gwon for video of the moc in motion.

enjoy the set and/or video.

Hi! Pardon the late reply, I had quite a busy week! I really enjoyed seeing your
work here. There are tons of plates in this MOC for sure. Great way to convey
the brick by brick look.

Again, very nice work, glad to hear you had such a positive response both here
on LUGNET and at the recent Lego Con.

Keep building!

This is model of the Robie House I displayed at Brickworld 2009. It is about 8000 pieces, built mostly of dark red plate to emulate the long thin bricks used by Wright. It is built on a 1 stud to 1 foot scale. Overall I am considering it a 1.0 version as there are quite a few small details that need to be fixed, especially those around the 1/2 stud offset used for the outer walls. Hopefully I can get to a 2.0 version.

Outstanding, impressive, and beautiful.

I really love some of the details of this particularly the texture of the various plates. Great work and thanks for posting it here, I would not have wanted to miss this.

Bravo, Chris!

This is instantly recognizable if you know Wright’s architecture -- and even if you don’t know the Robie House in particular, you still might recognize Wright’s style.

The fact that you took the trouble to emulate the texture and color variations of the bricks, in a model of this size, is impressive. The half-stud offset tiles on the crowns of the courtyard walls are also a nice detail. Finally, there are your windows -- it just wouldn’t be a Wright creation if you had used an expanse of plain-old plate glass!

thank you. it does sometimes seem like a ghost town here but with the view count i know that people are still here reading. your comments, especially cause there are so few making them nowadays, are much appreciated. glad you enjoy looking at the work.

   in march of this year, some members of our group were asked to create mocs to celebrate the ancient egypt exhibit at ottawa’s museum of civilization. i created an architectural moc after doing some research to try to make it at least somewhat historically accurate. there are not many pictures out there of actual ancient egyptian houses. this result is a composite take on a nobleman’s villa loosely based on floor plans i found.
 
i knew i couldn’t create a figless moc but it was difficult to gather enough plain yellow torsos to populate the villa with as many slaves as an affluent egyptian would own.
   
 

   the most fun i had was creating the door design and the front gate. when i demolish the moc, i will save both pieces and create another doorway study for my series. i printed a custom coloured cloth to create the canvas awning for the roof top, yes, it is non-lego.

enjoy the folder including floor plans and research photos.
