Displaying LEGO Modular Buildings in 2 Billy Bookcases

Hi everyone,

I’ve been collecting LEGO for several years, and at this point I have all the modular buildings LEGO has released so far, with the exception of Shopping Street…

I’m looking for your comments, tips, and suggestions on the best way to display my modular buildings.

I have two IKEA BILLY bookcases, each measuring 80 × 202 cm, and I also have some extra shelves available if needed. I used the washer trick to gain a little extra length, so I can fit exactly three 32×32-stud baseplates on each shelf.

What I’m trying to do is optimize the space in the two BILLY bookcases as much as possible, so I can display all my modular buildings while still leaving some space for the other LEGO sets I have to display.

What I’d like to ask, especially if anyone has done something similar, is what would be the best way to group the modular buildings on each shelf — particularly considering their different heights — in order to make the best possible use of the two bookcases and maximize the amount of space left for displaying my other sets.

I’d really appreciate any comments, ideas, or suggestions!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Happy building!
