Beautiful LEGO®

Beautiful LEGO is a book that fits its title to a tee. It is chock full of stunning and original art made completely from LEGO blocks.The book is done in full color on heavy paper stock and feels and looks high quality. It’s an excellent “coffee table book”. When people see the cover they will immediately want to look inside.Inside they will find hundreds of wonderful photos of LEGO sculptures that range in size from just a few bricks and a few inches high to complex life-sized sculptures containing thousands of bricks. The sculptures are very diverse and cover all sorts of subjects - from wildlife, to pop-culture characters, to architecture. Each sculpture is fascinating to look at, and to appreciate not only the overall appearance, but also the artists’ creative use of various LEGO bricks. As a child who would always follow the instructions, seeing the creative and wonderful things that people can do when they don’t, is inspiring and fun.As if the wonderful images weren’t enough there are also interviews with the artists scattered throughout the book that are very informative and enjoyable.All in all… it’s amazing what can be done with simple LEGO bricks.

Nice to have if you have a big lego collection.

Lego's have been a fascination of mine since I was a small boy. I was always amazed at how you could take these blocks and build just about anything. This is probably the foundation for why I was drawn to engineering. In this book, I was amazed at how far people could take lego art. It is truly wonderful how the human mind can design and build such wondrous things with just plastic blocks that can be linked together. I recommend this book to all lego fans. It has the ability to awe and inspire.

If not, there's something wrong with you!I have loved Lego's ever since I was 2 or 3 years old and now I'm about to turn 40! I just ordered this book as a gift for a contractor friends of mine who just finished a major remodel and I thought he deserved an awe inspiring coffee table book for his home.Hat's off to the contributors of this book! The pictures in this book are phenomenal and amazing! Such beautiful and mind blasting creations! I guarantee you will not want to put this book down!I want to go to my parents house and dig out my old Lego's that are in storage and build a masterpiece!

I bought this as a gift and the book was in good shape when it arrived and paging through it, was full of unique pictures if Lego builds. My adult nephew looked through it right away. I felt like the price was fair.

This is a highly recommended Lego book for any builder or fan. For new builders, this will serve as a compilation of inspiring models at your fingertips, and for experienced builders, this is a perfect way to show friends what you do. A book like this doesn’t need words to explain itself, the creations will do all the talking and delight all who’s curious to open its covers.The variety of artists represented in this coffee table tome is impressive: ranging from those who have perfected Lego replication of the household mundane to those who create full-on mythical landscapes like Doyle himself. The one thing all these artists have in common is the keen ability to think outside the brick. If you’re feeling like you need some Lego inspiration to expand your horizons, this is definitely the book for you. Below is a small sampling of the artists and works Doyle showcases.

Beautiful LEGO offers many photographs to inspire the LEGO enthusiast. While there are no instructions (I knew this) the photos are clear and fun! A great coffee table book and an inspiration to the beginner and the expert LEGO builders alike.

This is a well done Lego book. The creations featured are perfect examples of adult built models, as most (if not all) do not include any mini figured themed builds. It has a diverse collection of sculptural builds of everyday things, such as food, animals, and vehicles, as well as big and small architecture builds with themes ranging from realistic to pure imagination. The level of detail within the builds allows you to look over it again and again and pick up something new each time. And despite the variety of builds and inclusion of many different builders and styles, everything is cohesive and beautifully laid out. It's the perfect coffee table book, as both kids and adults will be wowed by the content.*I received a copy for review - all opinions are my own*
