Eric Harshbarger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eric Harshbarger is a puzzle designer and well-known builder of large scale LEGO mosaics and sculptures. From around 2000 to 2006 he has been commissioned to build for television shows, magazines and other companies for promotional purposes. Some of his more notable commissions included a life-size functional desk for an employee at an un-named company, a 12-foot Eiffel Tower, a bust of Conan O'Brian that appeared on the show, and a 21-colour demonstration of squaring the square. The projects regularly require several tens of thousands of bricks, and occasionally hundreds of thousands.
Harshbarger works as a puzzle designer for the Perplex City alternate reality game by Mind Candy. He has retired from building LEGO and no longer works for Sun Microsystems.
