Hoke House by Skylab Architecture in Twilight Movies Becomes LEGO Set

Hoke House in Portland, Oregon, designed by Skylab Architecture and made famous as the Cullen family home in the Twilight movie series, is now a LEGO set. Built in 2007, the Hoke House joins a renowned group of architectural landmarks included in the LEGO Architectural Series. 

“It’s an honor to see our work resonate with so many people,” says Jeff Kovel, founder of Skylab. “Being included in the LEGO collection alongside iconic landmarks like Fallingwater, Notre Dame, and the Taj Mahal is—in of itself—incredible recognition. It is not lost on us that LEGO is one of the world’s most recognizable brands. Its ability to inspire creativity and imagination in both young people and adults aligns closely with Skylab’s ethos of exploration and discovery. We’re excited to contribute to that spirit of creative engagement and see our work evolve into new expressions.”

Adapted from book to screen, the first Twilight movie was released in 2008. The series was a major hit with moviegoers, especially Millennials, and is among the top 20 highest-grossing movie franchises of all time, according to CBR. The “Cullen House” set includes the kitchen and living space, the library, and an infirmary depicted in the movie. Seven mini figures including Bella and Edward, played by Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, are included in the set, which retails for $219.99 and can be purchased now on the LEGO website.
