内容简介
Brick City is a celebration of the world's favourite buildings and urban icons, recreated solely using LEGO bricks.
While to many, LEGO bricks are 'just a toy', to an ever-growing army of fans they provide a challenging and enjoyable modelling medium.
These fans, calling themselves 'AFOLs', or Adult Fans of LEGO, have taken it upon themselves to recreate local landmarks using just the bricks that you may find at a local store.
LEGO models created by adult fans, however, don't resemble those that many people created as a child. Created by masters of their medium, these fabulously detailed models may contain thousands of pieces - or perhaps just a handful. Either way, the talented artists have an intimate knowledge of every piece and colour available. Skilfully choosing the ideal piece to recreate a well-known landmark, they may create a model indistinguishable from the real thing, or evoke the spirit of a building in just a few small pieces.
In fact, landmarks and cityscapes - from the New York skyline to the Sagrada Familia, London's St Pancras and the amazing towers of Beijing and Hong Kong - have long been a source of inspiration for LEGO builders.
In this book, LEGO artist Warren Elsmore takes us on a world tour and explores more than 30 global cities and their iconic structures. Below are just some of many cities featured: San Francisco Las Vegas New York City Rio de Janeiro Lisbon Edinburgh London Barcelona Paris Venice Rome Stockholm Prague Moscow Cape Town Tokyo Sydney And many more... Each city is examined and recreated in LEGO form. Comprising amazing artwork, exploratory photographs and detailed breakdowns, Brick City looks at the essence of what makes an urban landscape recognizable.

开始,警方只认为这些孩子在撒谎。他想飞,可别的孩子都想吗?就算是都想飞,他们每一次行动那神话般的精确协调怎么解释?没有雷达,没有航线图,没有地面导航,在阴天甚至连可供定向的星辰都没有,他们每个人之间唯一的联络工具是夜视头盔上发射半径不到三千米的对讲机,他们的集结却是那么准确迅速,以至于空一师的一个上校,带着一个飞行大队的歼击机飞行员,骑着飞摩托连着几夜跟踪“蝗群”,用他们自己的话说“学习如何在恶劣的气象条件和无导航情况下进行准确快速的夜战集结。”一群上百个互不相识的十三岁以下的孩子,没有严密的组织,难道能实现这样的出色的准军事行动吗?但以后,当警方和孩子们的对话了进行了成千上万次,并进行了严密的侦察后,终于认可了这个令人难以置信的事实:“蝗灾”是无组织的甚至无意识的群体行为。这些孩子们大多互不相识,他们的共同之处只有一点:

乐高积木的发明者是奥勒·基奥克,他1891年生于丹麦比隆附近的菲尔斯哥夫村。他有一手精湛的木匠手艺,年轻时就热衷于制作各种小玩具,出自他手的小飞机、汽车、动物个个形态逼真、惟妙惟肖。尽管他不懂经商,玩具经常滞销,但这并未使他放弃自己的爱好。后来,他设计的拼插玩具“约约”终于风靡一时。1934年,他为自己的积木玩具设计了“乐高”商标。
