For me the LEGO brick embodies the notion of systematic creativity—that the rigor and rationality of the LEGO brick allows children of all ages infinite possibilities to create their own worlds and to inhabit them through play,” BIG founder Bjarke Ingels said in a press statement. “We have been inspired by the modularity of the LEGO brick to create the LEGO House. It will appear like a cloud of interlocking LEGO bricks that form spaces for exploration and exhibition for its visitors within. On the outside the pile of bricks form the roof of a new covered square as well as a mountain of interconnected terraces and playgrounds.”

The building is scheduled to open in 2016. It promises “vast experience areas,” a café, a Lego store, and several roof terraces. It hopes to become a destination for an annual 250,000 visitors.
