And then one of the coolest LEGO fairs secretly asked you to develop a gift set featuring the fair, yellow, and winter themes. We were happy to take on that challenge! A collaboration between ArneBrickDesign and StudioNOP.
We delivered 200 sets (plus display materials) in full-color printed boxes and downloadable instructions. 329 pieces per set.
The set consists of two parts: foreground and background. This means you can use them individually or combine them as a display set, a gift with a personal message, a painting, or as a playset.
Front: Brickie and Dimpna meet
Back: three characteristic buildings around BAM
The packaging features the structure, patron saint Dimpna, the buildings, and a postcard. On the postcard, you can write a wish for the recipient. Cut out the card and slide it onto the back to preserve the wish forever. It also looks great on the wall!
And with the front, you can even perform a little show. Brickie, the mascot of the LEGO Bricks-And-More fair in Geel (BE), receives a gift from Dimpna.
The three buildings depicted in the background: Top left: the Thomas More Campus, where the BAM trade fair is held in Geel.
The Van 't Veld Mill, where the first BAM trade fair originated.
The distinctive Dimpna Church in Geel. The patron saint who—we believe—also has a soft spot for the BAM trade fair!
