LEGO Ideas Feature: Modern Apartment Buildings By Andreas Brick

Listen to this article

When searching through the offerings at LEGO Ideas, I came across a build that every LEGO City needs, Minifigure housing!

The Modern Apartment Building by Andreas Brick is the perfect solution and it looks great too. It embodies what every City build needs, a space for Minifigures to live and make a home. The lack of living spaces in official LEGO Modular buildings is lacking at best, sure there’s the odd apartment above the ground floor shop, but where do the other characters live in the set?

There is a rumour going around that the next LEGO Modular, coming this December, will be Townhouses. This is great news, depending on what they look like of course. But we need more housing in our Cities, so today’s LEGO Ideas feature is still needed, more than ever.

My build is made of about 2,500 pieces and includes 6 minifigures as well as a cat and a bird. – Andreas Brick

Inside the Building you’ll find many apartments, these are small but nicely furnished, with a bed, desk, lamps and other household items. There a balcony areas for each apartment which looks fun and interesting to build.

On the ground floor is the Architects office, is he the one that designed and build this apartment block? The office space looks very swish with the tiled floor and curved desk, the dual monitors really finish it off. On the roof you’ll find solar panels, these give power to the apartments which hopefully makes the bills cheaper. There is also a couple of small garden/plant areas too, or they could be allotments. There’s even room for animals to stretch their legs.

I think my idea would make a great Lego set because there are so many great buildings that people can buy, but most of them represent houses from the early 20th century, so my modern design would be a good addition to the product portfolio. – Andreas Brick
