The Bourgeois House:
On Lego Ideas, it is easy to find medieval sets of castles and lords or peasants but another group of the time is not represented: the Bourgeois. Indeed, they were not as rich as the nobles but acquired a little wealth mainly through trade. Passionate about this group and half-timbered houses, I decided to build this set which represents a banal bourgeois family home. This set would really deserve to become the next Lego Ideas set because I find that medieval houses are not present enough at Lego while there are many medieval fans in the community. In addition, for Lego fans who build large cities with their sets, this one will ideally complete their collection because any large city must have a historic center.
On the house:
On the ground floor, we find the dining room as well as a large hall where the father can welcome his guests. Right next door is the kitchen where the servant is busy preparing the meal.
On the first floor there is a small living room with a third fireplace and the passage above the alley. There is also the parents' bedroom with a French window opening onto the balcony and a corner where the father can have partners sign contracts.
On the third floor, we find the office where the eldest son who will take over the family business stays up late to do his father's accounts. Hidden behind the desk you can discover a small secret room where the father stores the family's money and his business. On the other side of the corridor there is a bathroom where the young girl makes herself beautiful with the help of her mother.
On the top floor, we find the bedroom of the young girl and her little brother which also serves as the family's attic. Next to it we find the bedroom of the eldest son separated from his brothers and sister so that he can study and be up to the task of taking over the business and the family home.
When the day is over, the servant crosses the passage above the alley to find herself in her room. She can rest and refuel there.
Below there is the shed where the family stores their cart which is very practical for traveling as a family.
