Some custom Playwell Bricks sets go beyond creativity and craftsmanship to carry a story that resonates on a deeply personal level. For One Call, a healthcare network dedicated to improving the outcomes of workers’ compensation claims, a unique build became the perfect way to honor their retiring CEO. This build is more than a model of their headquarters, it’s a tribute to leadership, legacy, and a special family bond.

The One Call team wanted a gift that would capture the essence of their CEO’s time at the company while reflecting the meaningful connections they’ve built professionally and personally. The gift needed to be highly customized, instantly recognizable, and deeply meaningful. Adding to the emotional significance, the CEO’s nonverbal son shares a unique bond with them through building brick sets together, making this project a chance to create something they could continue to enjoy long after retirement.

Playwell Bricks designer Yvonne Strijbos took on the challenge of recreating the One Call headquarters in brick form. The design process involved careful scaling adjustments to meet project parameters without losing the building’s distinct architectural character. Using techniques like SNOT (Studs Not On Top) to capture the vertical lines of the high windows, Yvonne preserved the essence of the structure while making it a functional, buildable set that those familiar with the building would recognize instantly.

The finished model serves as a tangible reminder of the CEO’s leadership, a heartfelt expression of appreciation from the One Call team, and a way for parent and son to keep building together. The gift embodies Playwell Bricks’ ability to blend technical craftsmanship with emotional impact, ensuring this milestone will be remembered for years to come.
