ARCHITECTURE ON THE CARPET Construction toys a foundation for professionals

BY NANCY STETSON nstetson@fl oridaweekly.com

Lincoln Logs. Lego bricks. Wooden blocks. Erector sets. Most of us played with some form of construction toys when we were little. But some of us kept building — and the materials became much more expensive and the buildings… well, life-sized. Architects are fascinated by form and function, line and beauty, space and light. They delight in texture and structure. And according to Brenda and Robert Vale, architects’ earli- est education came from those construction sets. In some cases these toys influenced the architect’s style and design. The husband and wife, in addition to being architects themselves, (and experts in the field of sustainability), are lifelong collectors of construction toys. They combine the two passions in their book “Architec- ture on the Carpet: The Curious Tale of Construction Toys and The Genesis of Modern Buildings” ($27.95, Thames & Hudson). Above: Instructions for building the former inn, the God Begot House in Winchester, in Tudor Minibrix. The SEE CARPET, A36 images appear in the book “Architecture on the Carpet.” w

Jodi Meyer Matchmaker As seen on WPTV as a dating expert and on the award winning tv show Palm Beach Rox. Dear Jodi, I have been dating a gentleman for around 9 months now. I really like him and we have so much fun together! Every time he comes to pick me up and rings the doorbell, my golden retriever gets tremendously overprotective. When I open the door to let him in my home, my dog growls, barks, jumps and really makes it uncomfortable for my friend to spend any quality time at my house, so we always end up leaving. It is starting to re- ally be an issue and he is noticeably getting very upset. We can never spend any amount of time at my home and I feel really bad about that. I really like him and I see this relationship going far, but am I suppose to choose between him and my dog? Jodi, what do I do?

The book, which is chock-full of research, even includes a chapter on Play- plax, which is not officially a construction toy, but simply colored translucent squares of polystyrene that can be interlocked or combined in various ways. (The toy is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in NYC where kits are sold in the gift shop.) The book’s not lacking in humor either. Here is how the chapter on Lego begins: “Of all the construction toys described in this book, Lego is probably the best known. There cannot be many middle- class parents over the last 50 years who do not know what it feels like to step with bare feet onto an unexpected Lego brick lying in wait on the carpet.” (The authors go on to note that in 2000 Lego was named “Toy of the Century” by For- tune magazine and by the Toy Retailers Association in Britain.) We e-mailed some questions to the couple, who are professors of architec- ture at the Victoria University of Wel- lington in New Zealand. Robert Vale was unavailable, but Brenda Vale answered our questions. Here’s what she had to say:

• How did you become inspired to write “Architecture on the Carpet”? Although we had sets of construction toys, (my husband) Robert collected a lot of Mec- cano after we came to New Zealand in 1996. (Meccano is similar to the US Erector Set originat- ing in 1913 – Meccano was first marketed in 1901 in the UK.)
