Record-breaking, life-sized caravan built entirely from LEGO bricks

It took a team of 12 professional Lego builders approximately 12 weeks to construct the world's largest caravan built entirely with over 215,000 plastic toy bricks, and it even set a new Guinness World Record.

Life-sized caravan built from over 215,000 LEGO bricks, painted in green and pink with an open door revealing the interior, surrounded by potted plants in an exhibition space

Created especially for the Motorhome and Caravan Show at Birmingham's NEC, the life-sized camper is based on the real 'teardrop' style caravan and includes everything from a sink with running water and electric lights to a bed, seating, a chess set and even pretend cooking facilities and fridge.

The project was commissioned by NCC Events and built by Bright Bricks – a LEGO building firm based in Hampshire – to celebrate 130 years of caravanning in the UK. Make sure you watch the video below to see the LEGO caravan being built, brick by brick. Or visit bright-bricks.com for more details.
