Always Building: LinsCraft

To celebrate the ever-expanding, globe-spanning joy of Minecraft we thought we’d invite some of our favourite build teams to contribute their skills to a single map and ask you to vote on what they make. Once all the build teams have created their own island, we’ll put the map up for you to download!

Last time, the amazing Blockception built a lighthouse embedded in a giant tree! This week, it’s the incredibly talented LinsCraft’s turn - building on the theme you voted for: haunted mansion!

Check out the timelapse above, and an interview with LinsCraft themselves below. Stay tuned to our Facebook page tomorrow for the next chance to vote!

One of the team’s first projects was creating an Asian-style vacation site, inspired by the Japanese animated film, Spirited Away. Since then they’ve explored the magnificent beauty of China’s Sanya Island in Sanya Mangrove Tree Hotel, and, most recently, The Port of Frontier, a project that imagines a Chinese industrial age in steampunk fashion.

It’s all part of LinsCraft’s noble mission to bring talented people together across the globe in the act of artistic creation. As LiPing says, “We want to give the architecture community new ideas in design, and hopefully, push new ways of building a structure for mankind. We also want to invite more artists and architects from different areas of the world to work with us closely, as we all have different talents.”

A fine aim, indeed! Thanks to LiPing and the incredibly talented LinsCraft team! You can find more of their stunning builds on their PlanetMinecraft page.

And remember to vote on the next build team’s theme tomorrow, over on our Facebook page.
