The story this work tells!

Welcome at the Fountain Place! Well, Fountain Place, or as some say, Fountain's Place, is not actually called that. The place carries the name of someone famous here in LEGO town … it's called .. um … I can't figure it out right now. However, definitely a famous scientist, or was it an actor, possibly a historical figure... whatever, in any case, the most important person! But, people affectionately call it Fountain Place because of the small fountain in the middle of which is Armor, the angel of love.

Here takes the life of this small town place. Granny and the ol'l Jack were just strolling through the town where they meet Julien the clown, who is handing out flyers for the circus that is currently in town. They met together in front of „the potted Brick“, which is a very popular flower shop with numerous beautiful plants. As soon as you enter, you are greeted by the most wonderful scents of all the flowers. A young woman is currently looking around and getting advice from the expert salesperson.

On the backside of the building is the entrance to the photostudio "Stone's Throw Photography", which is located on the upper floor. The owner is testing his latest camera at the fountain and taking a few snapshots. He seems to be very satisfied! After all, the fountain is his absolute favorite motif!

Next to the small fountain, the van from „The Potted Brick“ passes by. The van is loaded with a pallet with three potted flowers on it. The flowers are rare and exotic and will be the next best sellers in the store! So, come over and watch out what they offer there!

It's a nice day in Lego town and really joyful at Fountain Place.

Why did I build it?

Actually, it all started with the idea of creating a flower shop. I just wanted to build a modular building again after failing with a few other ideas. I definitely wanted to focus on something that I enjoy and that I can do. I am often impressed by other people's great creations, but I often lack the talent. But I know that I can design modular buildings and the matching vehicles - and I enjoy doing it! I hope you can see how much fun I had and that you like the final result! If so, I would be delighted to receive your support and a comment!

Why I believe it would make a great LEGO set?
In fact, I think, that this creation would be a beautiful addition to any LEGO collection of modular buildings! It can be connected to other buildings as a corner building.
The set uses a few advanced building techniques and it would be pure fun to build it. In addition, I like the idea to add a flower shop as well as a photo studio to any LEGO town. Additionally, the set comes with a great van. In my opinion vehicles are always great additions to modular buildings!

So, don't miss to support!
