Building Block Tiny Houses

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The LEGO Tiny House Was Designed by MOCbuilder on LEGO IDEAS

— February 1, 2023 — Life-Stages
The LEGO tiny house has been designed by MOCbuilder on the LEGO IDEAS site as a project that miniaturizes the recognizable off-grid home form for building block fans alike to admire.

The tiny home features a 1:32 scale that boasts a living room, bathroom and open-concept kitchen inside that, if full-size, would easily support the needs of off-grid individuals. The home is built on a trailer, which would accommodate being shifted between locations. The building block model features a series of thoughtful details like a solar panel array on the roof, windows and even a living wall on both sides of the exterior.

The LEGO tiny house consists of 1,387 pieces and needs to reach a minimum of 10,000 supporters before it can get in front of the brand's review panel to decide whether or not it will go into production.
