LEGO® Architecture is a new line of LEGO kits designed by Chicago architect Adam Reed Tucker. Adam uses the LEGO brick as
a medium to explore the world of architecture. A unique feature of the Architecture line is the inclusion of a booklet with details about
the design and history of the structure.
Landmarks Series models range from 7.4" to 9" in height and provide builders with a replica of the structure. Current models in
the Landmarks Series include the Seattle Space Needle, John Hancock Center, Sears Tower, and Empire State Building.
Architect Series models focus on the architectural elements and are more interactive in nature. These also employ more
advanced building techniques. Two Frank Lloyd Wright models –Fallingwater and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum – are
currently available.
