Mama mia! The LEGO® Ideas Italian Riviera Architecture Set is coming
Lego have announced that fans of Italy are in for a treat and sadly it is not gelato, but a new Lego Ideas release. Say Bonjorno to the Lego Ideas Italian Riveria set, which will be available for all on August 10.
The LEGO Ideas Italian Riveria set was submitted by Portland, Oregon-based Fan Designer, Alex Sahli, as part of the LEGO Ideas programme. LEGO Ideas allows fans to submit product ideas, which are then voted for by the community before being considered to be made into an official LEGO set.
“I’ve always been passionate about travel, and Italy stands out as my favourite destination. Its blend of natural landscapes and architectural beauty is truly inspiring. My submission is centred around the villages of Cinque Terre. One of the key structural challenges I faced was incorporating buildings at various angles while ensuring overall stability. I’m especially proud of the vibrant colours and the textural variety throughout the build - particularly in the water, houses, and stonework. I’m also pleased with how the tile roofing turned out; it’s a simple design, but it functions effectively and complements the overall aesthetic”
The set also includes 10 LEGO minifigures, such as a gelato store owner, a fish vendor, and a pasta-making nonna, bringing the vibrant scene to life. Builders can recreate heartwarming moments, like a nonna teaching her grandson to make traditional trofie pasta, or a tourist savoring local delicacies.
