Hello everyone! I am excited to share a project I've been working on for some time. This is the 4,995-piece College of Architecture! The set contains 8 Minifigures: 4 Students, a Shop Manager, 2 Professors, and finally the Dean of the College of Architecture.

The College of Architecture is where aspiring Minifigures go to learn how to construct new buildings in the greater LEGO World. As an Architecture major, I have a passion for design that made me want to create this set to hopefully get other kids into the architectural field if it becomes a real set. I used a Victorian building style as a true college of architecture requires good architecture on the exterior to showcase it can teach those who enter. 
 
Starting with the Foyer, we have a grand design that is open to the second floor, allowing for light to shine on it. To the right there's a trophy case for all the awards the college has won. To the back are 3 busts of great Architectural Teachers at the college who inspire the college students as they walk inside. 
 
Going through the arches leads to a small design studio space where the teacher is explaining the latest project to the class while they listen and draw ideas to what he says, letting inspiration hit them. 
 
Next to the design studio is the Dean's Office, this includes a small desk, filing cabinet, hat rack, and some references to other official LEGO Architecture model sets that he is proudly displaying. The walls can be rotated out and the ceiling can lift off to allow ample access inside the small office. 
 
The second floor can be slid out to allow for minifigure placement and more room to get to the first and second floors. The second floor contains a study nook for students to watch over the railing below, or find a book written by one of the many architecture professors and sit down to read it. A door leads to a rooftop terrace that is used by many of the students to get a good vantage view for drawing trees and getting a feel of how light hits different buildings.  
 
Finally, tucked away at the top of the building is the shop space for students to cut models for their projects.
