## What is B&C?

Design your ideal brick-built city before moving a single baseplate.

B&C: Layout gives LEGO® fans a precise, stud-based canvas for planning cities on iPhone and iPad. Set your city dimensions, arrange buildings, design road networks and create realistic railway layouts—all from one flexible workspace.

EDIT WITH PRECISION• Drag, rotate, duplicate and lock items• Snap objects to 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 studs• Select and edit multiple items together• Repeatedly stamp roads and railway pieces• Use baseplate guides, labels and coordinate navigation• Undo and redo changes while you work

SAVE AND SHARE• Save projects automatically• Continue working across iPhone and iPad with private iCloud sync• Export layouts as PNG images or PDF documents• Keep downloaded catalogue images available through the image cache

Start free with two saved cities, grids up to 128 × 128 studs, essential building tools and straight railway track. Optional one-time City Builder and Infrastructure expansions unlock larger projects, advanced railway pieces and high-resolution exports. There are no subscriptions.

Some catalogue images require an internet connection.
