I like the 4-sided building with an open-up roof because it allows for more
realistic architecture.
However, I think that I will eventually revert back to my classic 3-sided
"shell" or "facade" architecture. This is because I have my layout in a
10x12 room (on one side). There is absolutely no way for someone to look at
the back of the buildings (which is a shame since my Natural History Museum
is in the back). Buildings in the front (like the transit terminal) can be
viewed from above (i.e. the removable roof), but other buildings cannot be
easily accessed. So, why put in an interior or back wall in these cases?
I need a bigger LEGO room! (and I just got the one I have - Its actually the
same size as my old one, but we now have enough rooms in our new house so we
can have kids AND I am guaranteed to keep my LEGO room.)
