How I Contributed To A Major Shop Project In A Geeky Way

So, there's an upcoming project on the way, and it requires numbers be put in it.

 

My boss looked at me and said "I wanna put numbers in here in the geekiest way possible."

 

So I came up with one:

 

10111011100000

 

Translated, from base 2 binary, that's 12000. The highest value we had to insert on this model. 11 numbers are going on this model, and they go from (0)2000 to 12000 in thousand increments. Keep in mind it all has to be one color. So how do I build it? Very simply.

That's how. That's one plate for a 1, one round plate/dot for a 0, and the tile spaces it. That's all.

 

And yes, it's going to be an amazing thing we've made. Now I just need to design the remaining 10 :P

Does it have to be monochrome? It would be easier to read if the 'ones' and 'zeros' were different colors.

 

Isn't binary awesome?

I do not work for LEGO, I work in an independant LEGO art studio.

 

And yes sadly, all one color. That's the reason for the different shapes to identify 1's and 0's.
