The LEGO Group and Yinka Ilori have teamed up for the Launderette of Dreams. This is a free and interactive art instillation in London, which is only available for a limited time.

Using over 200,000 LEGO bricks, Ilori transforms a laundromat into a vibrant, playful, and colorful experience. Ilori drew on his experience of visiting his local launderette as a child in London. Additionally, he gained inspiration from students at his former primary school, St Jude & St Paul’s C of E. The students provided wonderful ideas of how to Rebuild the Word and transform the launderette with LEGO bricks.

The designs include interactive experiences, such as hopscotch tracks, kaleidoscope laundry drums, LEGO vending machines, and mural walls.

A giant mural wall allows visitors to build and rebuild it. The goal is to work together to create your own designs!
