These LEGO M.C. Escher recreations are truly amazing. Created by Andrew Lipson and Daniel Shiu, these LEGO models recreate some of Escher's craziest and most iconic drawings.
The best Escher image has to be 'Relativity,' or the room with all of the staircases. If you fancy art and LEGO then you will love these LEGO Escher models. I fancy neither of those things and they still managed to get me.
Implications - Businesses that effectively discover ways to channel childhood interests of consumers into modern or contemporary products will fare well within today's market. Consumers with nostalgic cravings will find such products highly appealing as they will succeed in satisfying consumer demands for products with both cutting-edge qualities and classic traits.
