Real Materials

Real materials - 7

Lego The Rev. Brendan Powell Smith is a Lego affectionado. He has made all sorts of models using Lego bricks - including a complete Christmas Crib - but he also makes tessellations! The idea can be seen from the picture on the right showing him holding a cube made up of six different tessellations.

You need an awful lot of bricks to construct a large picture (he uses headlight bricks part 4070), or he designs virtual ones on the computer using 'Ldraw', a free specialised CAD program for designing and recording Lego models.
