Nov 3 2009Interesting: 20,000 Piece Lego Kitchen Island

Listen, I love LEGO. And if I could build a LEGO woman and take her on the bus with me without soliciting funny looks from all the other, REAL crazy people while we partook in a little heavy petting, I 100% would. Unfortunately, I tested the waters with a mannequin and it's a no-go. But did that stop Parisian designers Simon Pillard and Philippe Rosetti from buying a kitchen island from IKEA and covering it with 20,000 LEGO bricks? IT DID NOT! And, damnit, it won't stop them from contracting salmonella either.
Hit the jump for two more shots of the counter.

Thanks to Amber, who made an island out of K-Nex and keeps dropping her cereal bowl through the damn thing.

This is a thing of beauty. Just don't come stumbling in drunk and break it. So much work down the drain. Pity they only covered the thing though.

23. Ebee - November 4, 2009 7:14 AM
Legos are pretty expensive and you would need a whole lot to make a table/island this size, i wonder how much this would cost to build?

What the hell is K-Nex?

This has been around for a while...good job on being current...but nifty none the less.

Awesome!
29. LDDR - November 5, 2009 2:08 AM
What would you clean it with? Wouldn't crap get in the cracks eventually? Is it clear coated or something?
30. Peregrinus - November 6, 2009 9:06 PM
@GW, a K'nex island would be awesome (with beaches of pristine white connectors) , @ Ollie (#27), K'nex are like Tinker Toys times awesome squared and they are plastic.
