Most importantly, the set is gorgeous, and a fine companion to 21310 Old Fishing Store.
It has height, and is just a great standalone display model that many adult LEGO fans will undoubtedly enjoy. The LEGO Ideas Motorized Lighthouse is based on an idea shared by 20-year old, Canadian LEGO fan, Sandro Quattrini. Sandro, who is currently studying animation, was inspired to design the lighthouse by a childhood trip. “My mother loves lighthouses, and she has been telling me to build one for years,” said Sandro talking about the design. “We once took a trip around the Gaspé Peninsula, a region of the province of Quebec, which is host to lighthouses of all shapes and sizes. I guess these structures have always been in some corner of my mind since that trip many years ago and for this project I wanted to capture that towering essence of tall lighthouses, while also keeping with their solitary nature.” We visited enormous stone lighthouses on rocky beaches and small, abandoned wooden lighthouses hidden behind the trees. Talking about the design and why it was selected, Global Marketing Vice President, Federico Begher, said, “Sandro’s design really evokes the solitary role of the lighthouse and the motorized light adds a beautiful dimension to the set.
It’s a really exciting and challenging build that creates a fantastic display piece.” I love the attention to detail with the lightkeeper’s cottage and the boat. Here are more lifestyle photos supplied by LEGO.
