Where it came from
Released in 2015 as the tenth entry in the LEGO Modular Buildings series, the Detective's Office (10246-1) was designed by Marcos Bessa. The set was created to expand the burgeoning city layout aesthetic, focusing on a noir-inspired theme that included a detective's office, a pool hall, and a barbershop. It introduced a distinct architectural style characterized by a vibrant color palette and intricate exterior detailing that aimed to evoke a mid-century urban atmosphere.
The model was well-received by the adult collector community for its narrative-driven design, which included hidden compartments and a smuggling plotline woven into the structure. By incorporating unique elements like a cat, a newspaper, and a dartboard, the designers sought to create an immersive play experience that balanced technical building complexity with storytelling potential. It remains a notable example of the creative direction the Modular Buildings line took in the mid-2010s.
