Lego Collector Recreates Vietnam Street Objects
In a room full of Lego pieces, Hoang Dang carefully builds a bright blue, yellow and red fishing boat with a Vietnamese flag.
The industrial designer has loved Lego for as long as he can remember. But he only started collecting the objects seriously a few years ago on an overseas study trip to Detroit. He was interested in the many kinds of Lego sets available in the United States.
Hoang mainly recreates sights close to home in Vietnam. His Lego creations include his childhood home, a temple in Hanoi's Old Quarter and a 1990s living room during Lunar New Year. All of the designs are complex and have colorful details.
Hoang used the term perspective – a way of thinking or understanding something – to describe his interest in sharing his love of Lego.
"I want to bring my perspective to friends all over the world, because Vietnam's Lego building community is still little known regionally and globally," he said.
Hoang is halfway to his goal of building 10 large models for a public showing. He said it takes about five months to finish a 5,000-piece facade, or front of a building. But, he added, much of that time is spent finding the right pieces.
"I often spend a whole evening to look for just that one brick," he said.
Even with a collection of over two million Lego bricks, Hoang says he is always looking for new pieces. That's how he made what he calls his "Lego friends," including Khang Huynh in Ho Chi Minh City.
The two met on a Facebook group for Lego builders and collectors. The name "Lego" is short for "leg godt," which means "play well" in Danish.
Hoang said, "Building Lego helps us to recharge our creative energy after working on long and tiring projects." Hoang and Khang like to take pictures of what interests them on the street, then recreate the objects with bricks. For Khang, that includes street sights with complex builds like a Honda Cub motorcycle.
"I am drawn to the everyday things around me that are very familiar," said Khang. "I build anything that I feel is cute and dear to me."

越南小伙用乐高“神还原”街景
在一个满是乐高积木的房间里，黄当(Hoang Dang)小心翼翼地搭建了一艘亮蓝、黄、红三色的渔船，上面插着一面越南国旗。
打记事起，这位工业设计师就一直喜欢乐高。但他只是在几年前到底特律留学时才开始认真地收集这些物品。他对美国各种各样的乐高积木爱不释手。
黄当主要还原了家乡越南附近的风景。他的乐高作品包括童年时的故居、河内老城区的一座寺庙和上世纪90年代春节时的客厅。所有的设计都很复杂，并且有丰富多彩的细节。
黄当用“视角”（一种思考或理解事物的方式）一词来形容自己对分享关于乐高的热爱的兴趣。
他说，“我想把我的观点带给世界各地的朋友，因为越南的乐高积木社区在其他地区和全球仍然鲜为人知。”
黄当的目标是为公开展览打造10款大型模型，而现在目标已经完成了一半。他说，完成一座5000件的乐高积木正面耗时约五个月的时间。但他补充说，大部分时间都花在了寻找合适的积木上。
“我经常花一整个晚上就为了找一块合适的砖，”他说道。
尽管已经收藏了200多万块乐高积木，黄当说他还是一直在寻找新的积木。他就是这样结交他所谓的“乐高发烧友”的，包括胡志明市的Khang Huynh。
两人是在脸书上一个乐高积木玩家和收藏家的群里认识的。乐高这个名字是“leg godt”的缩写，在丹麦语中的意思是“玩得溜”。
黄当表示：“在完成了长时间、繁琐的项目后，搭乐高能帮我们恢复创造力。”黄当和Khang喜欢在街上拍下自己感兴趣的东西，然后用砖块还原出来。对于Khang来说，这种作品包括结构复杂的街道景观，比如具体到Honda Cub摩托车。
“我常常被周围那些非常熟悉的日常事物所吸引，”Khang说道。“我会拼砌出任何我觉得可爱的事物。”
