When I was young (aka when my imagination was still vivid and Lego was still the only thing I need to be happy), I used to dream of living in a house made of Lego pieces. Things didn’t turn out very well as all pieces of furniture I made from Legos either broke down when I tried to sit on them or I hurt myself in the process. Thus, there is no need to explain how excited I was when I learned that a Lego home is quite possible. Here are 20 home items that will turn your house into a Lego heaven.
Lego Conference Room Table
If you are tired of conferences with all the heated discussions and boring talks, this awesome Lego conference room table will cheer you up. It was created by designers at Abgc out of 22,742 lego pieces, put together with the traditional Lego construction techniques.

Thierry Nahon and Philippe Landecker of Lunatic Construction came up with a simple yet cool idea for a Lego themed table. Pick some giant colorful Lego bricks, stack them together then add a pane of glass or a pillow on top and you’ve got fully functional furniture.

The Lego desk is not just any piece of furniture, but rather a Lego masterpiece built out of 35,000 Lego bricks and a whooping 7 pounds of glue. It features 7 working drawers consisting of six small ones and one large one, together with a folding lid on top that conceals a hole for computer cables to drop through.

When Sean Kenney was commissioned by Schou – a Dannish company to build Lego sculptures of furniture pieces designed by the company, he did an extremely good job with this amazing Lego table. Built out of 11,000 Lego pieces, the Lego table measures 4 feet long and is half size of a real table.
Lego Toaster and Alarm Clock
Inspired by the favorite childhood game, Jamyle Savaris’s extremely trendy and colorful toaster and alarm clock designs resemble Lego creations. Unfortunately, they are still in concept stage, but every geek has the right to hope for the day the designs will see the light of production.
Lego Brick Radiator
Called the Brick, Marco Baxadonne’s radiator decorated by Lego Bricks can warm up your house and your heart at the same time. Significantly different from the normal depressing radiator designs, the Brick’s cheerful colors will bring a smile on your face every time you look at it.

Lego Bluetooth Printer
This Lego powered Bluetooth printer is not a kid’s random creation, but a product of a highly practical and creative mind. It can actually work which means you can place it proudly in your office or your room to print out papers. Let’s hope that one day, it can print out Lego bricks too.

There seems to be no end to PC case mods, but the Lego PC case is certainly one of the most interesting and geekiest mods you have ever seen.

Lego Grandfather Clock

It took Eric Harshbarger a month to build this seven foot tall grandfather clock out of LEGO bricks, and the result is totally worth it. Everything is Lego: the gears, the axles, the pendulum, the escapement gear, etc. The only non-LEGO elements are the weights and the mono-filament line holding the weights.
Bonus! The Ultimate Lego Kitchen
Designers have been seeking new ways to apply different methods of expression. Nowadays, we can see designers try new things from molding shapes to become sleeker, to using new kinds of textures on furniture. Black granite counter tops, marble floors, and many other ideas have been recognized in the kitchen, but all this often lacks a vibrant feel. Parisian designers Simon Pillard and Philippe Rosetti decided to try incorporating color into the kitchen. See more pics here, “Amazing LEGO Inspired Kitchen Blends Nostalgia with Beauty.”
