LEGO bricks are a superb medium for design. Used by architects and engineers, our favourite little plastic blocks can be utilised to create prototypes and design studies for almost anything you can think of. We’re not sure if LEGO bricks are used in this way within the automotive industry, but if they are we imagine the results would look a little something like this.

This beautiful creation is the work of Flickr’s Alexander Paschoaletto, who has designed a spectacular supercar from a raft of yellow bricks. The wonderful shape is facilitated by some ingenious building techniques, with the curvature of the roof in two directions simultaneously being a particular highlight amongst TLCB Team. Head over to Alexander’s photostream via the link above, and if you’d like to design your own car, try picking up some LEGO bricks – you might be amazed at what you can do!
