The world is no stranger to Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands. We have heard many a debate about how the majestic and indubitably impressive looking structure is arguably one of the world’s most inspiring modern day marvels. According to an online poll on the LEGO Architecture website, Marina Bay Sands was voted as one of the most inspiring structures of recent times. In recognition of this, LEGO decided to iconize the modern marvel through its Architecture series.
The limited edition model focuses on the signature hotel complex and showcases the three towers and the famous Sands Skypark which is the centrepiece of Singapore’s skyline and urban renewal strategy. Designed by celebrated architect Moshe Safdie, the integrated resort joins the likes of the Sydney Opera House, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Villa Savoye etc – all of which have been immortalized by the LEGO Architecture series.
“It is an honor for Marina Bay Sands to be selected as Singapore’s landmark to be interpreted with iconic LEGO bricks. Marina Bay Sands is often viewed as a piece of art with our striking architecture and the Architecture Series will allow guests from all over the world to bring a piece of [the] Singapore landscape back home with them. LEGO has been inspiring people with the unlimited possibilities of arranging the bricks and we hope to continue this with the Marina Bay Sands set,” said Maunik Thacker, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Marina Bay Sands.
