LEGO Tudor Corner: The Modular that’s different, but still fits right in

LEGO’s Modular Buildings have been wowing fans since 2007. Each set adds something fresh, yet they all come together to form a seamless LEGO city. With the LEGO Icons 10350 Tudor Corner, LEGO introduces something truly unique: a set rooted in historical Tudor architecture. But don’t worry, this set still feels right at home alongside the others. Let’s break down why.

A fresh style that’s totally new

The Modular line usually sticks to urban themes, modern diners, bustling police stations, chic boutiques. Tudor Corner shakes things up with its old-world, English village vibe. Exposed timber framing, steeply pitched roofs, and detailed brickwork scream Tudor architecture.

At first glance, it might seem like it doesn’t belong. The Downtown Diner is pure retro Americana, and the Corner Garage is all about urban grit. But when placed together, Tudor Corner adds depth and variety. It’s the kind of building that hints at your city’s history, maybe even its oldest structure.

Why Tudor fits right in

Think about the Modular line’s defining features: the vibrant colors, intricate details, and storytelling opportunities. Tudor Corner delivers all of that. It’s not just a “rustic” design, it’s packed with the same level of charm and personality we’ve come to expect from Modulars.

For example:

  • The Pub: Every LEGO city needs a gathering spot. The pub in Tudor Corner, with its cozy interior and outdoor seating, fits that role perfectly. It complements social hubs like the Parisian Restaurant or the cafe in Assembly Square.
  • The Haberdashery: A small, niche shop? Sounds familiar. Think of the flower shop in Assembly Square or the tailor in Brick Bank. These specialty businesses add character to any layout, and the haberdashery is no different.
  • The Corner Layout: Like other corner sets, such as Corner Garage and Grand Emporium, this one anchors your layout. It helps shape your city streets, connecting straight-lined Modulars like Bookshop or Police Station.

Even the color palette, rich browns, creams, and muted grays, balances nicely with brighter sets like Downtown Diner or Pet Shop, softening the overall look of your cityscape.

Build techniques that blend

LEGO fans love Modulars for their intricate builds, and Tudor Corner is no exception. While it introduces new techniques, like angled timber framing and textured plaster walls, these methods don’t clash with the clean lines of other sets.

The tiled sidewalks, modular floor system, and consistent scale ensure that Tudor Corner feels like it belongs. Slide it between Assembly Square and Corner Garage, and it looks natural. It’s like adding a piece of history to a growing, evolving city.

Bridging the old and the new

One of the coolest things about Tudor Corner is how it bridges the past and the present. Imagine your LEGO city as a real place with its own history. Maybe Tudor Corner was the town’s original inn, still standing centuries later. It’s now surrounded by modern businesses but remains a community favorite.

Sets like the Parisian Restaurant or Bookshop already play with this idea of blending different architectural styles. Tudor Corner just pushes that concept further, adding even more variety to your display.

A Modular for the storytellers

If you love creating stories with your LEGO city, Tudor Corner is a dream. It’s not just another building, it’s a piece of history. Maybe the pub hosts regulars who’ve been coming for decades. Or the haberdashery is run by a quirky, button-obsessed owner. The details practically beg you to create narratives.

The perfect fit

Sure, Tudor Corner is different. It’s old-world, historic, and unlike anything else in the Modular series. But that’s exactly what makes it special. It adds variety without breaking the cohesive look of your city.

Place it next to the vibrant Jazz Club or the stately Natural History Museum, and you’ll see how it seamlessly integrates into your LEGO Modular Buildings collection. Tudor Corner proves that LEGO’s Modular Buildings aren’t just about fitting a theme, they’re about crafting a cityscape bursting with character, creativity, and charm.

So, if you’ve got all the Modulars, don’t worry, Tudor Corner doesn’t stick out. It stands out. And isn’t that exactly what you want?
