this latest moc, a luxury beach house,
was designed to accommodate the friends and aquaintances who can always find
their way to someone’s beach house. the house is completely symetrical and
modular to allow for compact packing. the main house with double staircase
encircles the central courtyard with double entrances from the side. two outer
buildings house private apartments for houseguests. build a beach house and
they will come.
the terrace patio overlooks the ocean and is divided by the reflecting saltwater
pool. through feats of lego engineering (of which i don’t they are at all
possible) the shallow pool uses salt water and sends water in both directions,
over the waterfall into the ocean and towards the courtyard into a fountain
pool.
i don’t usually put minifigs anywhere near my mocs but this moc made its way to
brickfest and into the town room and therefore i was strongly convinced that
this would be a good thing. maybe sometimes i’m not always right!
because it doesn’t open up like my regular mocs and is not furnished, it didn’t
seem to garner as much interest as its companion at the show, the italian villa
with aquarium pool, but the minifigs earned a few chuckles. i am tempted to open
it up and decorate the interior and may still do so because it will be featured
in the beach area of our lug’s next train show, railfair, in october.
enjoy. after
moderation.

| (...) I love it! Great use of parts, the patio chairs are sweet. And I like the colors. Sweep of the roof gets style points too! Tim (Smith) (19 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)
