LEGO Architecture: The Visual Guide
Iconic buildings reimagined in LEGO bricks
Sleek, stylish, and perfectly proportioned, LEGO Architecture models are as inspirational as the landmark buildings and structures they celebrate. Go on a stunning photographic tour of the models, with unique insights into the creative process behind their designs.
View larger View larger View larger View largerThis fascinating guide includes a foreword by renowned LEGO architectural artist Adam Reed Tucker. Tucker strives to capture the essence of a particular architectural landmark in its pure sculptural form. He does not view his models as literal replicas, but rather as artistic interpretations using LEGO bricks as a medium. As he continues to explore how to capture new LEGO Architecture buildings with LEGO bricks and plates, he finds the possibilities and challenges they offer almost magical.
