About the studio

The people behind the work.

WLWYB is a small studio that designs and builds custom models from LEGO® bricks, to commission, for companies that need a physical object rather than another printed thing. A project starts as a conversation about the moment it is for, becomes a design, and then becomes a prototype you can pick up and turn over. Nothing goes into production on the strength of a render.

The people below are the ones who plan the build, design it, put the bricks together and get it to you.

Holds the threads no single person can hold at once.

Beyond the people named above, the parts specialists who sort every brick by colour and by count are not listed by name. That is their preference.

The bricks

Every model is built from new, genuine LEGO® bricks.
