BIG UPDATE: TimeLapse is OUT!
Hey Steemians!
This post is a start of a project, a series, a VOYAGE ✈️ .
We will go through the best architectures and representative buildings in the world.
I want to express to all the Steemit community my love for the colorful and most funny bricks ever, LEGO!
To achieve that, I will show you the building phases, tips and tricks, photos and funny tales about the place or the building.
Please, join me on this trip. First stop, ITALY of course! 🇮🇹
Venice, the pearl of the Mediterranean
The post will be written both in Italian and English, for the English part skip the text until the separation line.

Proseguiamo montando il mosaico di piazza San Marco ed iniziamo la costruzione della facciata della Basilica di San Marco, di cui potete vedere un dettaglio:

Un Umarell osserva attento la costruzione dei lavori.. D'altronde Venezia non è stata fatta in un giorno! 😂

Si iniziano ad intravedere i risultati, arriva così il leone marciano (o leone alato) simbolo maestoso di Venezia!

Un dettaglio della Basilica, con annesso campanile.

Cosa ne pensate? Vi piace questa iniziativa? Sto preparando anche un timelapse della costruzione, sareste interessati a vederlo? Ho voluto iniziare mettendo le foto più significative, ma integrerò in questi giorni il post di conseguenza!
Ammetto che questa serie Architecture fa davvero viaggiare (ed è anche molto bella da esporre sulla scrivania o come elemento di arredo, provare per credere!).
Se siete arrivati fin qui, vi chiedo gentilmente di aiutarmi a raggiungere il maggiore numero di persone possibile upvotando e condividendo, e se volete seguitemi per ulteriori avventure.
The "Serenissima", the Dominant, the Queen of the Adriatic, City of Water, City of Masks, City of Bridges, The Floating City. You got it. Each of you can name Venice as he prefer. A such unique city that allows us, simple visitors, to name it as we prefer. A city that makes us feel part of a living show, that takes the visitor in the heart and soul of history. A stable and immutable city, that always awaits our return, each time more splendid than before.
What's the relationship between Venice and LEGO? The Architecture series is a collection which purpose is to revive architecture, design and history of the most beautiful cities of the world.
The major building and most elite ones are the selected to be in this series.

Let's start building! Here it is the "Bridge of Sighs" the first construction area
Source bafi, Canon EOS 1100D, 18-55
Let's proceed building San Marco Plaza, alongside the construction of the Cathedral of Saint Mark. You can see some details in the picture below:

An Umarell is always watching the construction's site. Venice hasn't been built in a day! 😂

Note: this will be strange for you reader, but being an umarell is a full time job. When you retire you monitor roadworks and constructions areas, giving direction of work. It's so famous in Italy that even Wikipedia.en recognise it!
Results start to show and the famous winged lion of Venice arrives, reminding us all the majesty and pride of the city!

A detail of the Basilisk, with the adjacent Bell Tower

And there she is, her majesty, VENEZIA
Source bafi, Canon EOS 1100D, 18-55
With such a small amount of pieces, you can see from right to left:
the Bridge of Sighs, the Bell Tower of Saint Mark, the Basilisk of Saint Mark and the Rialto's Bridge.
This is indeed the magic power of LEGO!
What do you think? Do you like this world tour with LEGO? Would you like to see a timelapse of the construction? I've chosen to put just some photos to not create a photo only post, I am open to any suggestion! So just interact in the comments below 😁
I have to admit that this LEGO Architecture series makes people really fly while building, and at the same time, it's super cool to show on your desktop (even as a piece of design it's amazing!)
