“As a kid, I always wanted to be a
model designer for the LEGO Group.
At some point, I guess the fear of adulthood kind of put into me that, maybe this isn’t a job that I can actually do.”
BUILDING THE LEGO DREAM
What is it like to be a LEGO® designer? How do you become one? Building the LEGO® Dream follows five people from different walks of life and different corners of the planet as they answer those questions and settle into the reality of being a LEGO designer. Having unknowingly changed the course of their lives when they took on the challenge of submitting a LEGO Ideas project, their journeys speak to the power of making space for your passion.
