It’s safe to say we have a few resident LEGOmaniacs (or AFOLs – Adult Fans of LEGO) amongst our team. Design Milk’s Editor-in-Chief, Caroline Williamson has been dutifully piecing together an impressively detailed A-Frame Cabin set, while I’ve been staying busy slowly piecing together my own LEGO Yamaha MT-10 SP model, a set I included in my last Take 5 list. I would like to think both of our next LEGO challenges will be the LEGO Modern Art building set, a more abstract 805-piece diversion where not following directions is all part of the plan.
While LEGO does include assembly instructions with their set, including an abstract face, it would seem natural to gift one of these sets to those people in your life known to do “their own thing.” Or better yet, give people who are not typically inclined to break the rules the opportunity/permission to just piece together whatever comes to mind.
With a myriad of colorful wavy, tubular, rectangular, triangular, and circular pieces at your disposal, the set may very well inspire you to tap into your inner Ettore Sottsass.
The set includes a hanger element to allow you to proudly display your creation when completed.
At just $50 for a set, the LEGO Modern Art set might prove to be a very popular set for LEGO lovers out there.
