  • Legos are more than a toy for the world-famous architect Moshe Safdie. They were the inspiration for one of his most famous works. Martha Teichner has the portrait of an artist on top of the world.

    one could argue that Habitat is his best project. it benefited from having a modular unit that invited an organic configuration. later projects also addressed very different programs as per building typology.

    Boise, Idaho's voters wisely held up in 2019 on a Safdie-designed events center/library. Sometimes you have to think hard about costs, impacts to the environment, and respect for local heritage and culture before you quest after visions ... especially in a city that's having a hard time just housing people, managing its traffic, and dealing with a growing population of homeless.

      Actually, *Lego* is a federally-protected trademark (it’s incorrect to make it plural or possessive). Its individual parts are called *“bricks”* . For example: My toy construction site consists of various colored Lego *bricks* .
