This museum takes its name from the red brick used by Dong Yugan to create spaces that are dramatically illuminated by skylights and narrow windows.

There are many ways to build LEGO roofs, from simple to complex, using a variety of LEGO pieces and techniques. Learn some interesting methods and also share your own!

Just 2x2 tiles and 1x2 plates. You can also use 2x2 plates, but then you end up with a lot of pressure and the base plate will bend - in fact I used plates here and you can see that it bends. You will get a cleaner and smoother look with less gaps when using tiles - I just hadn't the parts to do it right. This technique will give you a quite irregular and complex look.

Just a little tablescrap I've had sitting around since construction of the Lochaber IATTAR tank. This was one idea for a way to connect the two sides, but it came out too big for my liking. Still a cool effect, though, and would look excellent on a mid-sized fighter. Makes you wonder what other spacey techniques those sneaky Castlers are hoarding...

A potentially interesting arrangement for a future MOC. It's important to use the 1L bar with towball, and not one with the Technic axle, as the Technic one has a small lip that keeps it from going all the way into the 90 degree pipe, and this throws off the geometry slightly, putting stress on the longer straight section.

Technique I came up with while trying to create some sci-fi mocs. Feel free to use.

Today's technique is an example of awesome part usage by Mr. Pirate on Flickr, aka. Grant Davis in his 'Tropical Shores' MOC.The greebling/mosaic is made up of a number of unique pieces all in dark bluish grey such as keys, binoculars, skis and even bananas. These different shapes work so well because they are all the same colour, so blend together very well whilst creating a detailed and textured surface.Check out more pictures of his MOC here, and follow him if you're not already doing so: ht

I want a frame for the squares that has some flexibility to adjust to different sizes. Part of the problem is that there are studs that need to be allowed for sticking out of the brackets. So I put 1x2 tiles on them and slide them to the right spot, which messes with the geometry. So the 9x9 square with a 2x2 stud border worked fine. I kept thinking smaller ones should be easily frame-able too. So I tried a 4x4 square on a 6x6 stud base, but it was just ever-so-slightly too tight. Here is a 3x3 on a 5x5 base, and it is ever-so-slightly too loose. You can see how all the grey pieces don't snap right in to where they ought to be. It all becomes a huge mathematical mess. But then problem-solving is fun.
