alois Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 For my second MOC, I liked to build a smaller modular building (16 studs wide) next to the mayor's residence (32 studs wide). I also wanted to contrast the two buildings, so I decided to build a snackbar. The words Döner kebap neatly fitting on 10 studs, I decided it to be a döner kebap snackbar of the kind you find everywhere in the Netherlands. I decided to give facade also a marked contrast between the first floor, with its large windows and rather ugly sign, all not original 19-century, and the rest of the facade, which shows the original 19-century Dutch neo-renaissance design. I tried to give the first floor an interior. More images can be found here. Ultimate goal is to complete a Dutch street with multiple houses. Recently I bought set 10185, which may find ist place next to the snackbar. Quote
prateek Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Great building! I've seen many little shops like this when I went to Amsterdam I want a Shawarma now! Quote
lightningtiger Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Excellent buildings 'alois', great detailing to both especially the larger one with it's trimwork to the top of the front columnwork. Great job designing and building this....neat little cash register in the kebab shop too ! I'm a conformist! 'alois' ! Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Those are lovely modular buildings alois! The architectural design is simply superb, and the choice of tan as the dominant color is very effective and refreshing to look at. Impressive work on these! Quote
jonwil Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Nice kebab shop. All you are missing is the rotating things of meat (assuming they have those in Dutch kebab shops like they do in Australian kebab shops) Quote

All you are missing is the rotating things of meat (assuming they have those in Dutch kebab shops like they do in Australian kebab shops) Look better under the cupboards.... Those are lovely modular buildings alois! The architectural design is simply superb, and the choice of tan as the dominant color is very effective and refreshing to look at. Impressive work on these! I really like tan - it was a nice surprise after not building with lego since the eighties to find this colour. But the other reason for this colour are the sets 4954 and 6754 (which are nice buildings in itself, but now reduced to pieces). Quote
prateek Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Look better under the cupboards.... I think it should be a lot bigger, especially compared to this picture. Quote
Admiral Ron Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Very nice, It looks really good, all it needs is a full interior! And now I want a Doener kebab! Keep up the great work! Quote
