{"product_id":"i-lego-ny-9780810984905","title":"I Lego N.Y. by Niemann, Christoph","description":"\u003ci\u003eI LEGO N.Y.\u003c\/i\u003e is an imaginative look at life in New York City constructed entirely out of LEGOs. Designer and illustrator Christoph Niemann was inspired to create a series of miniature New York vignettes out of his sons' toys after a few cold and dark winter days in Berlin. The former New Yorker then posted photographs of his creations along with his handwritten captions on his \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e blog. Resident and honorary New Yorkers around the world responded enthusiastically to the clever and minimalist inventions, which captured both the iconic (the Empire State Building) and the mundane (man standing on a subway platform) in fewer LEGO pieces than one might think possible. This book includes all of the original images, plus thirteen new creations. The resulting collection is delightful in its simplicity and moving in its ability to cature the spirit of life in New York in so few strokes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Also available from Christoph Niemann: \u003ci\u003eAbstract City\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSunday Sketching\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christoph Niemann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harry N.
