James May who helps front the UK automobile show Top Gear (along with Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond) has announced his intention to contruct a two story house entirely from lego.
The creation is being build for his new BBC show ‘Toy Stories’. The house will be life-size with a staircase, toilet and shower, and May said once it was completed he intended to live in it for a few days.
Over 3 million bricks of Lego have already been delivered to his Wine Estate in Surrey. Using ‘toys’ to build objects on a grand scale is not something that it unknown to May as he has already created a plasticine garden that won the People’s Choice Award at the Chelsea Flower Show in addition to building the worlds largest model airplane.
