Shopping for Flowers

Sunday, September 5th, 2010

If you are looking for a bouquet of flowers for your beloved loved ones, then you should drop by this rich historic Cast Iron Florist done by Eurobricks member, sonicstarlight.

This modular building has been in the neighbourhood since 1871 and has been growing and nurturing different types of flowers in the greenhouse. With the wide incredible variety, it’s not surprising to see it lasting more than a century.

Abandoned City Museum

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010

I always thought Eurobricks Master Pirate Builder, SlyOwl has long forgotten Town but to my surprise, he has decided to build an old looking City Museum. It may looks abandoned on the front but there there is a caretaker maintaining the premises despite of shattered windows, locked gates and barricade windows surrounding the building.

Oh, and if you have the chance to sneak around, be sure to check out the museum exhibits. I heard there are many great items of interest in there.

Bricks Straight From Sofia

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

Bulgarian LUGger Georgi Varzonovtsev has always had a thing for modular buildings with a classic twist. This latest MOC of his however adds so much more to the frame.

It turns out after all that I'm not the only one who fancies buildings in classic yellow!

As seen on 'Oborishte street' - just a bit more vivid.

Using a real-life building in downtown Sofia as a source of inspiration, Georgi has conjured up a remarkable feast of yellow goodness. Knowing how he goes about building his MOCs, I can’t wait for the interior shots – and a glimpse of this beauty in real life (the MOC, not the original building… I like the LEGO version better ;) )!
