Legolize It Man’s art travels to SF!

The ever elusive Legolize It Man, a 35-year-old concept artist in the Game industry who lives and works in Stockholm, Sweden, is also a musician! In fact, he played in two different bands, Coyote and Twopointeight. He discovered his love for Lego’s when his “dad came by with [his] old Lego’s, asking if the kids wanted it to play with them,” which apparently was a stupid question as they ended up playing on the floor for about three months in a row. He says, “Eventually [my daughter] left for other stuff while I was stuck on the floor for ever.”

CrestOne Redefines “Sex Toy”

CrestOne‘s bold and hilariously vivacious contribution to our current LEGO-inspired show, Designing Outside The Lines, brings new meaning to the phrase “sex toy.” With the use of the LEGO platform, he crafts what he views to be a visual mainstay of BDSM culture combining classic sexual iconography with a standard children’s toy. Needless to say, CrestOne’s risqué new toy pushes more than just one boundary and changes the way we view the LEGO and how we interact with the classic toy platform.
