This is my first MOC announcement here on LUGNET.
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.
