lego-maniac Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) EDIT / FINAL PIC / MUSEUM AAN DE STROOM (BE) by LegoManiac - (LM), on Flickr /EDIT Hi All. Here is an attempt for the contest on BrickPirate I AM AN ARCHITECT I've tried to represent the Museum Aan de Stroom seen at Anvers in Belgium, made by Neutelings Riedijk Architects group. The constructions of this group of architects are unmistakable. The simplicity of the geometric shapes and the whole design form regroup, in my own, the art of this work. When I've moc the MAS, I've understand the whole geometry of this building. Even if it look simple at the first view, all glasses are turning around te building with a progression from the ground to the top (as DNA) The construction includes lights (pics will come soon) and the inside part is removable (I've create the 9 nevels as the real project.) from the outside skin. Museum Aan de Stroom by LegoManiac - (LM), on Flickr I've still not post my entry so, if ever you have remarks or advice to enhance the building, thay will be welcome! ;) thanks Edited December 1, 2011 by lego-maniac Quote

L@go Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Wow! I didn't know this building, but I googled it to find some images, and you seem to have captured its unique design very well. I particularly like the glass surfaces and the colour. Good job! Quote

HighFlyer Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Wow this looks excellent especially when compared to the real building. Great job Quote
Darth Dino Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Hi i often look into that forum for (more) architecture builds. Your MAS make me look mor often into this forum again - this is really nice! I keeps the whole design with a "couple" of different bricks. Even the colors are very close to the original. Thanks for sharing, i am looking foreward for more of this or similar. Dino Quote
lego-maniac Posted November 29, 2011 Author Posted November 29, 2011 Thanks guys for those comments. I've tried to shot for real the moc and I have an important question for you all. What do you think about the utility of the half pin on the moc. of course they are representing people, but I'm not sure now of the utility... what do you think about it ? Quote
Jan Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) What do you think about the utility of the half pin on the moc. of course they are representing people, but I'm not sure now of the utility... what do you think about it ? First I want to say that I absolutely adore your model. It has really got that typical Neutelings feel to it. The scale perfectly fits the model, and the round glassbrick perfectly represent the waving glass facade. About your question, I think the last photo they really add something to the model. There is no doubt they represent people there. In the other three pictures I find them more distracting than adding something to the scene. I think the model is lively enough without them. I really hope you win this contest, good luck, Jan (from the land of Neutelings Riedijk) Edited November 29, 2011 by Jan Quote
