The LEGO Architect Series is a line of LEGO sets that allows users to build detailed models of famous landmarks and architectural structures from around the world. The sets are designed to be educational, and are intended to teach users about the history, design, and engineering of these structures.
The Architecture theme which was introduced in 2008 contains sets designed by Chicago architect Adam Reed Tucker based on real structures. Adam Reed Tucker's sets focus on incredible man-made sights and structures based upon the real world and comprised of microscale models. Unlike most LEGO, Architecture sets are typically not meant for playing but rather designed for display. The debut sets, released in 2008, were of two Chicagoan classics: Willis Tower, and John Hancock Center then New York City's Empire State Building, followed by Seattle’s Space Needle.
