Brick by brick

Anyone who grew up with a LEGO addict in the house will love this news via the BBC: Prospect magazine challenged five of Scotland's top architecture practices to design a building out of LEGO. The results from Aedas, Gareth Hoskins Architects, gm+ad, Michael Gilmour Associates and RMJM are now online and open for public voting. The buildings will be displayed at the Scottish Design Awards Nominations Exhibition this week, will also be shown at the Lighthouse in Glasgow, and will be auctioned off for charity in May, with proceeds going to the National Autism Society Scotland. The winner will be announced May 29 at the Scottish Design Awards Gala.
