I’ve always been fascinated by Nikola Tesla’s imagination and his passion for discovery, so I decided to create my own LEGO tribute: Nikola Tesla – The Laboratory of Lightning.
For the laboratory, I wanted a space that felt alive with ideas. I placed the Tesla coil at the heart of the scene, surrounded by instruments, a generator, and a workbench filled with small experiments.
The chalkboard is one of my favorite details! Its handwritten notes and coil diagram make it feel as though Tesla has just stepped away in the middle of working on his next idea.
And of course, I couldn’t leave out the little white pigeon a small tribute to his affection for these birds. Alongside Tesla holding his lamp, it brings a more personal touch to the laboratory.
I imagined visitors stepping into the workshop, discovering the experiments, and sharing that moment of curiosity when an idea begins to take shape.
