Lego Shophouse Experience - Orchard (ended)

The Lego Shophouse Experience that started since mid March 2026, located at the 2nd floor of Design Orchard, has ended today (4th April 2026). It was a great exhibit of the different Lego pieces and definitely drew some crowds of Lego fans. Centering around the "shophouse" theme, there was a signboard carved with the Lego name in Chinese characters, inked with gold paint, right at the entrance of the exhibition pop-up. 



Personally I enjoyed the short but interesting exhibit (couple of rooms). There was proper crowd control by the Lego staff, with fun enough activities e.g. that post card activity with 6 stations for "chopping" different colour inks to form a picture, that helped to engage both the fans and whichever friends they brought along for this visit.

I like that Peranakan theme too, since that is something unique to this part of the world. The featured wall at the entrance formed from Peranakan mosaic tiles gave a good classy touch that fitted well with the Shophouse theme. Oh, those who managed to complete the postcard stamping activity could also claim a free Lego mosaic set (while stocks last). Pity I didnt manage to get a set.


It was also good that Lego featured some pieces from their fans e.g. this Nespresso Machine Piece besides their usual impressive sets e.g. the Marvels and the Star Wars. 
If that is anything that is not to mark, I would say that the "sales area" is somewhat small and located across the junction at the Takashimaya side (i.e. diagonally across). Maybe some unique sales sets right at the exhibit areas at the Design Orchard side would have been great (yah I know there is a much bigger Lego store).
