New LEGO Display & Storage by Room Copenhagen

As you may know from our previous discussions (see links at the end of this post), the Danish company, Room Copenhagen, is the maker of the majority of LEGO’s official storage, sorting, and display solutions. Their most popular and well-known products are the LEGO minifig storage heads, LEGO storage bricks (both with lift-off top and drawer), minifig display cabinets, lunch boxes, and more. Room Copenhagen recently participated in the Toy Fair shows in Hong Kong, London, and Nuremberg, where they displayed some of their upcoming products for 2020. Below are the details.

Most of the new products by Room Copenhagen focus on home decor this year. The colorful LEGO Picture Frame can hold common photo formats to display family and other photos, and they are also deep enough to display your minifigures. They can be used for wall-mounting, or just standing on a flat surface. And they are stackable as well.

The new LEGO Brick Shelves can hold books, toys, souvenirs, trinkets and come in three sizes; 2×2, 2×4, and 1×6 studs. They can be used for wall-mounting, table use, or in combination with the LEGO Desk Drawers that were released last year.

The popular LEGO Storage Head that has been available in two sizes will now come in a third, smaller size. They are great for storing LEGO pieces, or pretty much anything else. And, of course, they are also stackable.

In 2019, Room Copenhagen released the LEGO Wall Hangers set, which includes three upscaled 1×1 round LEGO plates that can be mounted on a wall as hangers or simply as decorations. This year, the hangers will also be available mounted on a backboard to create a more traditional hanger design.

The previous popular products, like storage boxes, desk supplies, lunch boxes, etc. will be available in more colors as well. Room Copenhagen products can be purchased from various retailers either at their store locations or at their online shops, and you can also get them via the Online LEGO Shop and Amazon.

Besides the Toy Fairs that already passed, Room Copenhagen will display their products at the following upcoming events: Ambiente Messe Germany – February to 7-11, New York Toy Fair – February 22-25, Melbourne Toy Fair Australia – March 1-4, International Homes & Housewares Show Chicago – March 14-17.

I’m personally very fond of Room Copenhagen’s products, as they perfectly match the colors, designs, quality, and overall aesthetics of LEGO’s own products. My entire LEGO storage and display setup are based on their system. They are not the cheapest storage and display solutions on the market, but they are durable, stackable, and transportable, so I think they are worth it. Anyway, check them out, if you haven’t done so already.

What do you think? Do you have any of the LEGO-branded products by Room Copenhagen? How do you like them? Feel free to share your thoughts and own reviews in the comment section below!

You may be familiar with the work former LEGO Designer Tiago Catarino, as he designed some very popular sets during his time at the LEGO Group between 2016 and 2019. Originally from Portugal, Tiago worked mostly on LEGO Creator 3-in-1 sets like the #31070 LEGO Creator Turbo Track Racer, the #31065 LEGO Creator Park Street Townhouse. and many more. Tiago also worked on the #21313 LEGO Ideas Ship in a Bottle, and the #10267 LEGO Creator Expert Gingerbread House. You can check out his complete portfolio at the Brickset database.

Tiago quit working for LEGO in the summer of 2019 for personal reasons (you can watch his video about this here, and his video about the plusses and minuses of working for LEGO here). Since then, Tiago has been focusing on expanding his YouTube channel with tips, tricks and building tutorials. He is a very talented LEGO designer, so learning from him is a very valuable experience.

At the beginning of this year, Tiago started a series, sharing building instructions for one small project each day, ranging from furniture pieces, appliances, creatures, landscaping, interesting shapes, and more. They can be incorporated into larger builds, or just used as a learning tool to enhance your own building skills. None of these projects takes very many pieces, so most LEGO fans should be able to follow along.

In the player below, I have included several of Tiago’s tutorials for your convenience, and you can also visit his YouTube channel directly, follow him on flickr, Instagram, and Facebook.

If you like following tutorials like these and free-building in general, but you need more pieces, take a look at the LEGO Classic brick boxes, which were specially meant for building your own projects (the sets do include some suggestions, but other than that, you’re on your own). You can find them at the LEGO Classic section of the Online LEGO Shop.

What do you think? Do you have any of the official LEGO sets designed by Tiago? Do you have a favorite? And what do you think of his tutorials so far? What else would you like him to release tutorials for? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below!
