Robin Sather - Portfolio
Choose from the following categories, or simply scroll down the page.
| Event Creations | A selection of some large, and some not-so-large LEGO and DUPLO creations that Robin has created. Most of these pieces were temporary sculptures. They were built onsite, displayed for a time, and have long since been dismantled and rebuilt into new sculptures. | |
| Building Kits | A sampling of some of the custom designed building kits created for clients, venues, and events. Custom building kits are available either pre-packaged, or can be used as "Make & Take" activities (participants gather the pieces at the event, build the kit, and then take it home). | |
| Mosaics | Specifically commissioned LEGO mosaics, usually built onsite with event attendees, as part of an interactive event. Almost any design, image, logo, and style can be created using a LEGO mosaic. Completed pieces are suitable for hanging and display. Want to learn more? Click here for a special 'Introduction to LEGO Mosaics' slide show. | |
| Commissions | Specifically commissioned creations, some built onsite as part of an event. These pieces are designed and built to order, and become the permanent property of the client or venue. | |
