Arkadium Logo
October 2005
20" x 20" x 8"

Arkadium is a leading online game developer, publisher, and distributor. They also have a logo. And, like most logos, it is 2-dimensional. I was asked to create the logo in three dimensions, which is exactly one more dimension than their logo currently had. Always loving a challenge, I was happy to attempt to build this logo out of LEGO(R).

As you can see above, the Arkadium logo has a colosseum-look to it, with its multiple tunnels, and step-like interior. To sculpt it in 3-D, I would have to answer questions like, "Where do the tunnels lead?", "How deep is the stadium?" and "Are there concession stands on every level?" I eventually answered these questions and came up with the 3-D sculpture of the logo. It now sits in the lobby of the Arkadium offices.

I also worked with Arkadium on a game project. Since LEGO is such an interactive medium, I wanted to make my website more interactive, and Arkadium helped by putting together the awesome Brick2Brick game that can be found on this site. Take your shot at matching up my models and if you are successful, get a behind-the-scenes peek at my life as a brick artist.
