HOLIDAY TOWN PRESENTATION • Images 11-15

Above: Angelique is the custom minifigure angel designed to top the GIANT TREE in the HOLIDAY TOWN PARK. Angelique watches over everything and ensures peace and harmony for everyone. Angelique was built primarily with basic minifig parts, her "skirt" is a white slope and her "wings" are plate parts often used in airplane kits.

We hope you are enjoying your own BRICK DREAMS where you are this season.

Below: A view of the "back block" which is home to several residences, as well as the BLUE MOTORCYCLE SUPPLY STORE, the TAN BANK BUILDING and the HAMBURGER JOINT. Minifigures watch from their perch on the roof of the GREEN NORMANDY HOUSE.

Above: The corner of a residential block across from the park is home to the CREAM & HOT PINK HOUSE. Behind is the sculpture that started the entire project, the SUNNY YELLOW COTTAGE. Visible in the background is the LIME MODERNE ROW HOUSE and BLACK & WHITE HOUSE #1.

Below: The WHITE & YELLOW LION HEAD HOUSE is decorated with a brick wreath on the side of the building facing the park.

Above: The HAMBURGER JOINT, owned and operated by CHEF MINNIE, (seen in the doorway). CHEF MINNIE can make you a big juicy beef burger, or if you prefer, she also cooks up a delicious veggie burger. When CHEF MINNIE isn't cooking, she relaxes on the roof top sun deck, (not visible in this image). The HAMBURGER JOINT also has a secret access hatch to activate the interior LED light.

LIME MODERNE ROW HOUSE • BRICK TRICK HOLIDAY TOWN

Another addition to the HOLIDAY TOWN project is this model based on a moderne-style row house from the nineteen fifties. The bold use of lime green is representative of many of the bright and sometimes wild color choices featured on buildings throughout our home city.


Above: Image shows a computer rendering of the LIME MODERNE ROW HOUSE as it looks on a wide-screen LCD monitor.

This is another creation where Philip used photographs of actual homes from a nearby neighborhood as inspiration. Philip likes to use the digital designer program to build the house model first as a computer rendering. (This program is available as a free download from the brick manufacturer official web site). Then Philip builds the structure with parts and pieces from the BRICK TRICK studio collection of goodies. In the case of this model, some of the details changed from the concept rendering to the actual completed work. Most notable changes are the lack of a stair banister and the white-framed window panes. An architectural graphic element was also added to the finished brick house on the porch overhang.
