Wingspread - Overhead by Jameson42, on Flickr
After 2 1/2 years of work, 50,000 pieces, and hundreds of hours of building, I've completed Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie School masterpiece in LEGO! The completed model is 5ft by 5ft, and will debut at KLUG's "Uke's Harley-Davidson" show in Kenosha, WI this May. It is also coming to Brickworld Chicago 2015 in Schaumburg, IL.
Wingspread was built in 1937 for Herbert Johnson of S.C. Johnson in Wind Point, Wisconsin (just north of Racine).
I kept a blog of my progress at www.buildingwingspread.com/. Check it out for some behind-the-scenes information. In the coming days I will be posting information about building techniques, packing for transport, and getting things "show ready".
