Build Your Own Chicago



Taking the joy of papercraft to the observation deck, Wurlington Brothers Press offers dozens of buildings and landmarks from our beloved city as postcards that can be constructed into your own paper models at Build Your Own Chicago. Designed and drawn by Matt Bergstrom, the attention to detail shows how much these folks love the Windy City. Each postcard is available for $1.50

Build Your Own Chicago is a series of postcards published by Wurlington Brothers Press which can be cut and assembled into miniature paper models of prominent Chicago landmarks. We look for some of the spirit, if not the complexity, of the beautiful "Micromodels" designed by Geoffrey Heighway in the 1950s. All postcards are designed and drawn by Matt Bergstrom.

Wurlington Brothers have also started Build Your Own New York for those who prefer the Big Apple.
