Building Block Haunted Homes

Mike Doyle's LEGO Victorian House Looks Abandoned

— February 3, 2011 — Art & Design
Considering that abandoned homes aren't anything new in North American society, I'm not surprised that Mike Doyle has decided to create a deteriorated LEGO Victorian House. Yet where some see desolation and neglect, Doyle sees intriguing beauty and character in these broken-down pieces.

Funny enough, that's exactly what I see when I look upon the LEGO Victorian House. Although it has a haunting presence, its stunning details transcend those spooky feelings. With over 50,000 pieces used, this is truly a masterpiece.
Trend Themes
1. Deteriorated LEGO Creations - The trend of creating LEGO structures with a weathered and deteriorated aesthetic provides new opportunities for artists and designers to explore the beauty in decay.
2. Spooky Architecture - The trend of incorporating haunting and eerie elements into architectural designs presents disruptive innovation opportunities for the construction and real estate industries to tap into the growing demand for atmospheric and unique structures.
3. Giant LEGO Masterpieces - The trend of constructing large-scale LEGO creations allows for innovative experiences in art, design, and entertainment, offering opportunities for immersive installations and interactive exhibitions.
Industry Implications
1. Art and Design - Artists and designers can seize opportunities created by the trend of deteriorated LEGO creations to explore new aesthetics and inspire conversations around beauty and decay.
2. Construction - The construction industry can leverage the trend of incorporating spooky elements into architectural designs to cater to niche markets seeking unconventional and atmospheric structures for residential and commercial purposes.
3. Entertainment - The entertainment industry can capitalize on the trend of giant LEGO masterpieces by creating immersive experiences, interactive exhibitions, and themed attractions that engage audiences of all ages.
