Bricks Up Has a Brand New Look!

We're excited to announce that Bricks Up has a brand new look! While we're still at the same domain you know and trust, you'll have noticed that over the last few days, everything else on the website has been refreshed. From the layout and fonts to how to browse and interact with the latest LEGO news and rumours, this redesign is a big step forward for our site, our community and our brand.

Bricks Up has always been about celebrating the fun, creativity and colour of the LEGO world by covering new set reveals, the hottest rumours and the most detailed insights possible. The brand new website finally reflects this, being rebuilt from the ground up to better reflect the vibrant LEGO community we serve.

The updated look brings out more personality as a fun, fan-run LEGO news site, while still keeping things clean and easily accessible. Whether you're here for the latest leaks, official set reveals of themed features, the new website design and updated layout help you find what you want and fast!

What's New?

• A More On-Brand, Playful Design: Brighter colours, bolder fonts, Minifigure drawings and a more dynamic layout bring our content to life. It's now easier than ever before to explore articles, view set images and stay up to date with everything LEGO.

• Fully Responsive and Adaptive: We've worked incredibly hard to make our website work smoothly on every device. The new layout adjusts automatically so you get the best reading experience on mobile, tablet and desktop.

• Easier Navigation: We've cleaned up the menus, streamlined their descriptions, added article tags and personalised category pages with further detailed and playful descriptions so you can quickly jump to what LEGO news and themes interest you the most.

• Faster Load Times: Behind the scenes, we've improved performance, too. Articles and images now load faster, so you can spend less time waiting and more time reading about the most exciting LEGO rumours and leaks.

• Cleaner Text, Better Fonts: We've updated all our typography for both headings and body text to make it sharper, easier to read and work well across all screen sizes. Combined with our redesigned sections, this gives Bricks Up its boldest and best look yet!

Why Now?

Since we launched in 2021, Bricks Up has grown fast and become a formidable force in the LEGO news community. In 2024, we reached over 740,000 post views and became an award-winning website, achieving 'Best Online Specialist Toy Newsletter - UK. As we've grown, we realised our site needed to grow too. We wanted a design that better reflected who we are: a fan-driven LEGO news site that's creative, trustworthy and community-focused.

What's Next?

This redesign is just the beginning, however. Over the coming months, we'll continue to make further improvements and changes to the site to continue delivering the latest LEGO news and building our loyal community. We've already launched an Instagram account and LinkedIn page and will continue to post on these platforms on a regular basis, providing breaking news in a different format along with behind-the-scenes coverage.

We will also post more regularly than ever before, covering all LEGO themes from the likes of LEGO DUPLO and LEGO Disney to LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Technic. Our news and rumour coverage will be more expansive than ever before, whilst also sharing more set images and breakdowns in these regular articles. And obviously, we'll continue to build the best LEGO fan site we can!
