This is a model of an imagined Italian seaside villa. I have always loved Italian architecture, and the beautiful color schemes they incorporate into their buildings. Accordingly after seeing other Lego Ideas Italian themed submissions, it inspired me to do the same; this is my attempt to recreate just some of the great things about Italy.
This model includes 3 buildings, and five mini-figs. The first building from the left, the yellow one, is a musically theme building; it includes two rooms. The top one has a bed, a jazz poster, and a saxophone leaning against the bed. The lower room includes a couch, and a vintage record player.
the red building is more of art/baking themed. In the top level is an artists room ๐ฉ๐จ ๐จ ๐๏ธ, it includes an in-progress painting, one complete one the wall, and a paint brush and color palette. The middle room simply contains a couch, an arm chair, and an old antenna TV. The lowest room is a kitchen; it includes a cupboard with some pots on it, a basic counter setup, and some spaghetti๐.
the last room doesn’t have a specific theme. It has a couch, a table with some pizza ๐, a lamp etc.
I used several reference photos to accomplish this model: to get a lot of the smaller details. Some of these include: the general color scheme of the buildings, the vines, the roofing, grape vines ๐, the PIZZA =)
the mini-figs in the model are: an artist, a boy who is fishing, a man at the lookout, and a couple at the table on the patio.
From what I have seen on Lego Ideas, and from the fact that Italian architecture is simply beautiful, I believe this would make an excellent official set. I think it would have a very broad appeal, not just targeted at one country, but would be appealing to many (this is shown true by the fact that me, an American ๐บ๐ธ am making this Italian ๐ฎ๐น submission). Anyway, this has been a very exiting model to make and I have high hopes for it.
