Mji Mpya

This build is titled 'Mji Mpya,' meaning 'The New City' in Swahili, and is an afrofuturistic city display piece.

The build features lots of different skyscraper techniques, and you can see a couple of the transportation methods this civilisation uses. It is build on a large base, with the lake overflowing off the edge, and the decorations on the side feature giraffes, elephants, buffalo and lions, as well as patterns inspired by adinkra symbols. Although it was not compulsory, I chose to use a similar building style as Ekow and used only black, metallic and transparent bricks.

I absolutely loved building this and learning about a different culture to my own. My research has taught me a lot and I hope you like it :)

Have a great day!
