Loch Ness jest

July 13 2009

Loch Ness jest
The Scottish Parliament has endured much criticism in its short history through perceived inadequacies in its architecture, “I could do better”, being a common refrain from the average punter.

Taking that notion to heart LEGO UK have approached the architects of tomorrow, children, to see if they could do any better by re-imagining some of the country’s most famous landmarks.

Adopting an unconventional approach to civic design the kids proposed levelling the current MSP den and replacing it with a snaking sculptural figure that draws inspiration from “Nessie” of Loch Ness fame.

To give tangible form to the improbable creature a scaled down LEGO model of the Parliament was disassembled for children to piece back together as they saw fit.
