Be careful if you are building on the floor. Sometimes, heavy footsteps are all it takes for a tower to topple. Baseplates come in many colors, from green to blue to grey. If you want to build your tower on “cement,” use a grey baseplate.
A smaller base will use fewer bricks, but the tower will be less sturdy the taller you make it. A larger base will use more bricks, but will make it sturdier as it grows taller. Using the same color for your whole tower will make it look uniform or you can mix and match bricks to have a multicolored building!
If you want your tower to look more like a castle, build the bricks outwards by leaving 1 stud exposed on the interior of the tower.
Does your tower have antennae or satellite dishes? Do you want to add gargoyles or clear studs to simulate lights? Look at pictures of towers to see what you can incorporate.
You can build complex towers like the Eiffel Tower by stacking blocks from the corner of a baseplate towards the center like a pyramid. [8] X Research source
Take inspiration from real buildings. Most buildings alternate between columns and windows as you build them up. You can always skip adding these if you are only looking to build the tower for height.
Individual pieces can be purchased on the official LEGO online store. [11] X Research source
Give your flower a flowered walkway up to the doors. Put a lightning rod on top of the tower for extra height and decoration.
