[LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creator-expert-colosseum) introduces a look at its latest design in the form of the Trevi Fountain model. It is an intricately detailed design of the Rome landmark. The set joins the brand's ongoing [Architecture series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flying-machine-set) and the launch of the model is set for March 1st. It is comprised of 1,880 pieces and it captures the true elegance of the landmark with [intricate sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-replica) and a grand facade of the Palazzo Poli.

The structure is seen throughout many moments of pop culture and the set itself continues to build on a previous Trevi Fountain model that was unveiled in 2014, which was made up fo 731 pieces. This time around, the details capture the flowing water and architectural accents more intricately.
