From the didn’t-know-we-needed-it department: Lego Apple Store

Just when it seemed like Lego had finally represented all cool things with its complex sets, along comes a fascinating new Apple Store design. But it’s not officially Lego yet. It’s a fan submission to the Lego Ideas website that could go into production if enough people support it.

The details in this thing are incredible. Seems like it’d be a lot of fun to build. But first Lego and Apple will have to sign off on it.

Lego Apple Store design includes incredible details, including Easter eggs

So it already seems like you can build Lego anything. And now comes a proposed Apple Store Lego set courtesy of Legotruman in collaboration with @2A2A. Legotruman has had other sets reviewed by Lego, including the successful Lego The Starry Night set currently on sale.

If the Apple Store Lego set gets 10,000 supporters, Lego will review it as a production contender (if Apple gets onboard, presumably). As of Wednesday morning, the model received 2,538 supporters with 599 days to gather support remaining.

Celebrating Apple Store with Lego bricks

“With a subtle and clean design language, these locations celebrate simplicity and minimalistic beauty. There’s a unique feeling of relaxation and clarity you can only get while visiting Apple stores,” Legotruman wrote.

“We have built this model to celebrate that beauty, with a brick-built Apple store that can add to your Lego collection,” they added.

Legotruman’s description and photographs show the model has a detachable roof with Apple logo, allowing access to the interior. The front section of glass wall is also removable, as is the upper level and back wall, which reveal a “hidden surprise.”

The post also references Easter eggs in the form of hidden tributes to iconic Apple devices: iMac G3, iPod mini, AirPods, Apple Watch and Vision Pro.

The design

Though there’s no telling what a final, approved production model might include, here’s Legotruman’s description of the model’s design features:

• This model is not based on any one specific Apple store location. Instead, it is uniquely designed after observing the features and style shared by many iconic store locations.
• The building features tall glass walls around the front and two sides.
• The huge Apple logo shines in white, placed front and center. These are features seen in most apple stores, contributing to the consistent aesthetics of these locations.
• Black border “door frames” indicates the entrances.
• Inside, clean space with friendly staff members in blue t-shirts.
• The long wooden tables showcasing the latest iPhone, iMac and MacBook.
• On the shelves, white product packages and headphones (arranged in a floral pattern, seen in many store locations).
• On the right, indoor Ficus trees in white pot with nougat brim (seen in many real-life store locations).
• On the left, stairs crossing the boundary of indoor/ outdoor spaces.
• Upstairs, a display table for colorful Apple Watch, more staff helpers, and a beautiful color gradient screen as backdrop. Many store locations feature similar large display on white wall backgrounds.
