Bryan Berg - the Cardstacker

Mar 08, 2007 in fun


Do you like to play cards?

Well, this guy, Bryan Berg, spends lots of his time with cards, but not playing.
He is a Cardstacker. He makes fantastic card architecture. Formally trained as a designer and architect, Berg holds several Guinness World Records for houses of cards.

Bryan Berg broke the Guinness World Record for the World’s Tallest House of Cards in 1992 at the age of seventeen, with a tower fourteen feet, six inches tall. His latest record-holding structure in the category is over twenty-five feet tall. In 2004, Guinness created a new record category for the World’s Largest House of Cards to recognize a project Berg built for Walt Disney World–a replica of Cinderella’s Castle. He continues to hold both records.

In 2004, Berg earned his Master of Design Studies from the Harvard Graduate School of Design. He previously served as design faculty for three years in the Department of Architecture at Iowa State University, where he received his Professional Degree in Architecture in 1997.

 

In my case, I can build a 8-cards house… And I thought it was great…
