How many Lego pieces does it take to build a dividing wall? 55,000 according to German creative agency NPIRE. They should know, because they went ahead and did it in their Hamburg office.

It’s an incredible looking wall, but before you go ahead and say you’re going to install a toy wall instead of using the usual building materials, keep in mind that it would actually be more expensive, not to mention time consuming. Fifty five thousand new Lego pieces would calculate to around $3000. Compare to a few $12-$15 pieces of Sheetrock and some studs that would be sturdier.

But can you glue Lego to an existing wall for a similar effect?

Our answer is: Sure, why not?
