Church of giant Lego-like blocks

Well, it had to happen. Somebody had to take the famous stackable concrete blocks that are often used to create temporary barriers and paint them in the famous Lego colours.

That somebody was artist Filip Jonke who started building this temporary ‘church’ on the Grenswerk festival terrain in the centre of Enschede. The building is still being erected and you can follow that process at Jonker’s website.

The building will measure 25 by 10 metres with a 20 metre steeple and will serve as a pavilion for the festival.
