So small, Frank Lloyd Wright

ENG: This week my Frank Lloyd Wright Guggenheim museum lego finally arrived.
The building contract was given to the experienced lego construction company Helene & Son Ltd, represented by Son. I took photograps to document the process. But I think someone got the scale wrong, maybe they mistook inches for millimeters...

NOR: Denne uka kom endelig legopakka med Frank Lloyd Wrights Guggenheimmuseum.
Byggeoppdraget ble gitt til det erfarne legobyggefirmaet Helene og Sønn as, ved Sønn.
Jeg tok bilder gjennom hele byggeprosessen. Men jeg tror noen må ha bommet på målestokken, kanskje de blandet tommer og millimeter...

LEGO 1

ENG: At last the building supplies from the Danish manufacturers arrived, so the building company Helene & Son Ltd. could complete the remaining facade. The exterior of the reception rooms was rebuilt. Arne Vaa, who supervised the project, had made drawings based on the original drawings. For the pub, he proposed a more modern look, but still in keeping with it's older neighbour's style.

NOR: Endelig kom de manglende byggematerialene fra de danske produsentene, slik at byggefirmaet Helene & Sønn AS kunne få bygget ferdig den gjenstående fasaden. Eksteriøret til selskapslokalene ble gjenoppbygget etter Arne Vaas tegninger som var basert på de originale tegningene. For puben foreslo han en noe mer moderne stil, som samtidig spilte sammen med den eldre naboens uttrykk.
