Description

Where a street began

Cafe Corner kicked off the Modular Buildings, a series of grown-up houses meant to stand side by side along a street. It shows a corner building with a cafe on the ground floor and proves how much detail fits into a model that fills only one plot. If you plan to continue the series later, this is where the idea of a shared street first appeared, and it still works as the natural starting point for a row of town houses.

Grey, brown and white

Light and dark bluish grey form the facade, reddish brown adds timber and roof tones, and white brightens windows and frames. The result looks like an old town house, not a colourful toy. The palette is calm, and that restraint is what makes later additions sit comfortably beside it. With just 116 different parts across more than two thousand pieces, the impression comes mostly from repeated wall and roof elements.

Building it, showing it

The build is a long project with plenty of layering: walls grow course by course, and interiors are added along with a removable roof, so the cafe can be furnished afterwards. The three minifigures give the house scale and life. Once finished it is a display model for a shelf or cabinet that you will still want to open now and then. If you shop second-hand, check the parts list, as small pieces tend to go missing from collectable sets.

Parts list and your own ideas

This page lists every part with quantity and colour, handy for comparing against a used box. With “What can I build?” you can also see which parts you already own and what could be assembled from leftovers and other sets. The many grey and brown standard bricks are easy to reuse for your own houses, should you want to rebuild the cafe or put a second building next to it later on.
