Let’s travel to the Ørestad district of Copenhagen, Denmark, 135 miles (217 km) to the east of LEGO HQ. There you can find the Tietgenkollegiet, a building designed as an ideal student residence. Its boxy rooms are arranged in a toroid, with greenspace in the center. LEGO Masters Denmark finalist Esben Kolind gives this architectural wonder the LEGO treatment in his latest model, and boy does he succeed! The cubic nature of the rooms translates well into brick, while more clever techniques are employed to curve the building through all 360 degrees.

While Esben has many more shots on his Flickr page worth checking out, I did want to also feature the top-down view. It really displays the spectacular geometry he’s able to pull off in this creation.
