US 50's Soda Shop

[Hoexbroe]

Hi all,

I present you the last building to be finished for the MegaMOC 2012. (Bus&Train station, City Hall and Used Cars Sale already finished, but not published);

Namely an american 1950´ies Soda Shop, or Ice Cream Parlor;

-Unfortunatly the front of the building will not be directly visible...

The building has a fully decorated interior;

-At least speaking about the ground floor. The other two floors can be opened also, but for the moment they will not be decorated;

As you can imagine, the strong point with this MOC is the interior of the Soda Shop. Here are some close-ups;

-Some details has been inspired by a MOC by Legohaulic...

Ciao!

Great colors for furnishing!

That jukebox is the best I have seen in LEGO!

Where did that clock come from?

The flooring just screams: AMERICAN DINER!!!

[PsyKater]

Wow, great interior. I love the colours!

[sgeureka]

Where did that clock come from?

Probably from the scale (sticker) of 3188 Heartlake Vet, as are the medium azure curved tops.

Hoexbroe, I love how you attached those curved tops to make the seats. I was thinking about using them as a backrest for my own restaurant, but using them for the whole seats is even better.

Thanks! :-)

The jukebox might be a Misterzumbi invention.

The clock -and some other pieces, like the sofas, comes from the Friends Veterenarian set. (The clock is actually a weight-scale)

It´s definatly NOT a diner! There is a diner next door to this place. It has been posted here on Eurobircks too, and features an interior decoration somewhat like this one...

Totally awesome.

The jukebox is just the right thing.

A wonderfull MOC there Hoexbroe. The interior looks great, especialy the seats and the white/blue walls. Great use of colors.

Two words....../

[soccerkid6]

Very nice facade but the interior is stunning! The color scheme is perfect

[Andy D]

Excellent! The design, the colors, the furnishings! I spent many an hour in soda shops like that. Looking forward to more.

amazing, i love the jukebox

[L@go]

This really is fantastic. You know what my favourite detail is, but I have to say, that whole ground floor interior is just spectacular. The exterior is great as well. I'd love to go to the HispaLUG Expo, but it's the same weekend as the Fanwelt in Cologne, so it's a no-go...

[Konajra]

Nice building, with an even better interior. I really like the colors you have chosen.

[Htrag]

Makes me think Back to the Future! Awesome.

[Wedge09]

Fantastic work :thumbup:

I love the JukeBox and the interior of the ground floor :grin_wub:

Have you intention to finish the interior of the second and the third floor??

Makes me think Back to the Future! Awesome.

Indeed :laugh:

Great job Hoexbro! I love the interior of the soda fountain and the Jukebox! Definitely has a 50's feel. Anything planned upstairs?

I really like what you have done here and I keep coming back for another look. Love the jukebox, colour combination, the checker trim on the wall , the seats, the trim on the table legs, the grill brick / grill tile trim between the seats and the raised booth, in particular.

Can't what to see the megaMOC 2012!

[harton]

I was really impress by the interior, I guess it is your most important part. Your jukebox is really clever, all the parts are great! I hope you will finish the upper level and good luck with the contest!

[Kai NRG]

What a brilliant idea, the color scheme, especially of the interior, looks great! Excellent couches as well!

[sonicstarlight]

Love it! I'm a sucker for anything of this era, and you certainly nailed the look of the interior. Blogged on Brick Town Talk!

[tomdobs55]

Absolutely stunning :Hoexbroe" what a great interior! I really like that you used 1x2 tiles on the floor, looks unique. What is that yellow piece on the counter that looks like a cupcake or muffin wrapper?

[Ferrik]

That MOC looks amazing. I love the awnings and the interior is terrific. There's also a lot of really nice detail on the exterior of the building.

Thanks, your own works always serves as inpsiration too!

Thanks. That is from a Friends Café set. (Where also major part of the awning comes from...)

The use of 1x2 tiles on the floor was a necessety; All my 2x2 are used in the Diner, and I didnt have enough 1x1´s. I am glad it worked out OK.

[tomdobs55]

Wow I haven't looked much into friends yet looks like some great moc stuff in those sets. I like the 1x2's because I feel like everything is 2x2 tiles for floors its refreshing to see something different

[Redhead1982]

The highlight of this MOC is most definitely its interiors - the Soda Shop. There's lots of great detailing, I really like the seating area in friends blue, and black&white tiled floor.
