A LEGO super fan has his sights set on a career in design after triumphing at a LEGO creator’s competition. Luke Harrison, 13, beat over 600 other entrants to be crowned the best in the North West.
The victory means Luke is one brick closer to the national title and his dream job of being a LEGO set designer, working on the brand’s builds across the world.
Luke’s mum said her son has been a huge fan of the model brick brand since he was five years old, and has had his sights set on a career with LEGO since primary school. “This is hopefully a stepping stone to taking his talent further and ideally he would love to be a LEGO set designer or to work within LEGO.
She added: “He would love to one day hopefully meet Alec the Global Master Builder from America and get some LEGO tips and advice from him to help improve his skills and techniques.” Luke constructed a mythical sea scene for semi-final entry, which showcased his skills and ultimately attracted the top bosses.
