MOD: Palace Carpets - for all your flooring needs!

[Chilis]

I really love your work but could never do the same thing with my PC or the other modulars.... Something inside me says that I´m not allowed to MOD a modular other than add more floors in the same original style or add a 2.nd, 3rd or 4th building of the same next to each other. Looking very good with the Grand Emporium. But thats me ;)

I like how you made the MOC as if it's like a WIP.

Very nice job, modding the Palace Cinema. Liked the various carpets.

I really like the creativity on the last construction stages on the roof and siding.

You'd be surprised how accurate to life this can be - many suburban 1930s-1950s cinemas in Dublin are in fact carpet showrooms now - generally if they're not a bingo hall or a furniture shop, they're a Des Kelly Carpets!

I was born and raised in the North of England (Go Carlisle United!) and although we had nothing architecturally equivalent to the faux-oriental Palace there's plenty of old Playhouses and Cinemas that have been morphed into Carpet warehouses. The only thing I missed was the endless, heavily discounted sales (as Jonwil pointed out earlier).

Very well done.

What made you think of a carpet shop though ??? Love them btw...

Also, the scaffoldings are a revelation ....hope you don't mind if i replicate :-)

Palace cinema becoming a carpet store? I never would have thought of that. Great build, escpecially the little scenes you make with them.

Now if only LEGO would release carpet piece that looks like carpet and made of cloth. They did have many cloth elements before including:
