Kristel Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 A row of townhouses in colours that are good enough to eat. I originally built one of these in Dark Orange, but couldn't resist using these delicious colours for the final street! Quote
wooootles Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I like it! It's like a different take on Painted Ladies. Quote
lightningtiger Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Beautiful row of town houses 'Kristel'........any interiors ? Brick On 'Kristel' ! Quote
peedeejay Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Charming! I like the style alot. Should look great next to your White Picket Fences! :) Quote
seba123 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Those are lovely, thank you for sharing. I agree those would look great next to the white picket fences. Do you have any pictures from the back? Quote
LittleJohn Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Gorgeous! I really like the gardens in front of each of them, and the colors are fantastic! Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Fine transition of colours and fine front gardens! Quote
gazumpty Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Ah Kristel...you definitely know how to make me awe-struck and jealous of your genius each time you post! Great use of colour and your architectural details are spot-on! Great work! Quote
LAKAbricks Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Beautiful buildings, Kristel. Very harmonic. And funny as all the gardens look like each other Quote
Kristel Posted March 17, 2015 Author Posted March 17, 2015 Thanks DD840, wooootles, Zblj, LittleJohn and Captain Braunsfeld! Beautiful row of town houses 'Kristel'........any interiors ? Brick On 'Kristel' ! Thanks, LT. No interiors, and no plans to do so. This was more a showcasing of the colours than the design per se, although the building started with the door design (which had been sitting by itself in WIP for a long time). Charming! I like the style alot. Should look great next to your White Picket Fences! :) Those are lovely, thank you for sharing. I agree those would look great next to the white picket fences. Do you have any pictures from the back? Thanks peedeejay and seba123! They are very similar styles, but I think the colours would probably clash. Also, no sides or backs - I had barely enough bricks (other than Bright Pink) to do the front facades!! Ah Kristel...you definitely know how to make me awe-struck and jealous of your genius each time you post! Great use of colour and your architectural details are spot-on! Great work! Thanks Gazumpty! I don't know about genius, but I'm glad you like it! Beautiful buildings, Kristel. Very harmonic. And funny as all the gardens look like each other Thanks laka. Hopefully the gardens look exactly the same! Quote
Withacee Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Love the design of these buildings. And adjustable to basically any colour one wants. Especially the ground floor facade and the little garden patches are great. Also very satisfying for a person with a certain "symmetry-obsession" I bet you were annoyed by the fact that the door knobs weren't available in all required colours, though... Keep clicking those bricks together! Quote
blksuperman2 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Oooh that's beautiful. I'd love to build that too. Do you have instructions? (I'll pay) :) Quote
Andy D Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Wow! Wonderful colors. Looks like a color gradient of row houses. Andy D Quote
Redhead1982 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Kristel, the colours are delicious! I'm still collection lavender bricks, and your street really makes it worth it. It's very unusual seeing buildings in pink tones, and your street really looks lively. The design in simple enough with the white brims, so the colours really pop out. Would love to see a full street with all the possible colours (a bit of a challenge, though). I have a question, what's the depth of the buildings? Quote

Also very satisfying for a person with a certain "symmetry-obsession" I bet you were annoyed by the fact that the door knobs weren't available in all required colours, though... Keep clicking those bricks together! Thanks Withacee. I purposely kept the parts requirements simple, so that it would be able to be built in as many colours as possible. And yes, it did bug me that the door knobs weren't consistent! I was tempted to go with different parts, but consistency in part won over consistency in colour. Oooh that's beautiful. I'd love to build that too. Do you have instructions? (I'll pay) :) Thanks blksuperman2. The instructions will be up on my blog this weekend (to download for free). Wow! Wonderful colors. Looks like a color gradient of row houses. Andy D Thanks Andy! I'm glad you like it. Kristel, the colours are delicious!

I have a question, what's the depth of the buildings? Thanks Redhead! I would also love to see this done with all the possible colours. Hopefully someone else with a few more bricks can take the time to do a full rainbow. There's no depth at all to the ones I built. I barely had enough in these colours (other than Bright Pink) to do the fronts! If you look closely at the Medium Lavender one, you'll see the top few rows are done with plates!! Quote
Wookiee Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 As usual a great looking facade,you are the master of the use of friendly colours in a traditional building. The only thing i don't like is the hole in the upright next to the door. ( could it be capped with a white 98138 ). My daughters would love a set of buildings like this as they are all about the pink and the purple. Quote
kevin8 Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 I like the idea of a series of identical house. We have plenty of blocks in the city and all the houses are similar when not identical. These row is very nice and elegant. Welldone. Do you develope the interiors too? Quote

A round tile tile might work ... hadn't really thought of it as a hole until now though! I like the idea of a series of identical house.

No interiors, and no plans to do so either. Quote
AirborneAFOL Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Very nice use of those lesser-used colors. I'm a big fan of both the door and window framing, too! Quote
eliza Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I always hesitate to use bright colors on a modular, but you've used them to great effect here! Quote
Kristel Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks AirborneAFOL, eliza and Bennemans! Quote
