In a curious case of architecture imitating toys which imitate architecture, Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) has begun construction on the Lego House. Located in Lego’s hometown of Billund, Denmark, the building will resemble an oversized Lego structure and is expected to be completed in 2016.
The brick-laying ceremony included Lego matriarch Edith Kirk Kristiansen, who, along with other members of her family, laid ceremonial foundation stones which look like oversized Lego bricks.
