LEGO® House
The world should have one place where you can
experience the LEGO story and be inspired by the endless possibilities
of the LEGO brick. That place will be the LEGO House at the heart of
Billund.
Watch the creation of the LEGO House
The LEGO House will be constructed on a plot that previously housed the town hall of the Municipality of Billund. Most of our communication regarding the construction is only in Danish and will only be published on the Danish version of this website. All press releases in English are available in the menu structure on the right.
Watch a video about the LEGO House
The building was drawn by the Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), and the video below offers you a guided tour of the House. Please note that the decorations shown in the video will not be those of the finished House. We will be developing the decorations throughout the process and want to be a little secretive about them until we are ready to invite the public in. The architectural concept is to establish the functions of the building as 21 bricks encircling an indoor space, placing them on top of each other and concluding with a classic eight knobbed LEGO brick at the top.
