A Fantastic Coffee Table Book, Even for Non-Architecture Fans.
By Alexander Lucard
I enjoy Legos a lot. Even as an adult nearing middle age, I still buy the occasional set and put them together. One series I've never gotten into though is the Architecture line. They're too small for my taste and I've never found them to look too much like the actual buildings they are modeled after. They just come off cheesy to me, especially the ones with "water." However I love coffee table books and especially design oriented ones, so I decided to give this one a try.
I have to say, I am really glad I picked this up. Normally my reviews aren't this gushing, but I loved everything about it. The book is high quality in terms of both substance and style. It comes in an extremely durable slipcover with glossy matte finish and Lego artwork. The cover of the book is an inversion of the slipcover design, as it is shadows/silhouettes of the Legos compared to artsy photos on the box. I have to admit, this is the best slipcover for an item I've seen outside the ones Nippon Ichi makes for its premium edition videos. Color me impressed.
The book itself is equally awesome. Not only do each of the twenty-two offerings in the Lego Architecture line get their own section, each one has a plethora of interesting information and wonderful photos taken of them. Take Big Ben, which is pretty much my standard for why I don't think the Lego Architecture line is very good. You get tons of pictures of the complete piece, each from different angles, along with footnoted and tidbits about the design process. You also get photos of the real structure the Lego set was patterned after. There is a side by side (well page by page) comparison of the real thing with the Lego version, and also a history of the building and its chief designer(s). So not only do you learn a lot about what went into the Lego version, but you also walk away with having learning something about the real historical piece. I loved that! each entry in this visual guide follows the same format and it really is a joy to read.
Besides the sections on the specific Lego sets, you also get a timeline for the series, profiles of the Lego staff that designed these sets, information on the creative process and a look at the different bricks used in all of the sets.
Although I probably won't buy any of the Architecture sets showcased in this collection, I really did learn a lot from this book and it was as fun to read as it was to look at. I walked away with some more respect for the Architecture line and I'm sure I will flip through this again from time to time.

Beautiful
By Dan Lebryk
For the true Lego Maniac, this book is incredible. It is essentially a huge beautifully photographed catalog of the Lego Architecture series. Just about every model available in the series is included in the book.
On a pure coffee table picture book standpoint, this is a nice book. The paper is heavy weight. In DK style, the photographs of the full sized architecture are gorgeous. First opening of this book is awe inspiring, the book is held in a thick heavy cardboard slipcase. The book is bound in cardboard with glossy paper glued over the cardboard. The binding is tight and allows the book to be laid flat.
There is a bit of background text about the creative process and profiles of the artists that designed these models. The core of the book is each model. The formula is the same for each of the 22 models. A close up picture two page spread of the model. On the next page the design artist's perspective on what was critical with the building. The facing page is a picture of the whole model. The next page pair is a breakdown of the construction with key elements called out. And the last pair of pages DK shines the most, beautiful pictures of the original building and some text describing the building.
As a catalog and casual coffee table book, this is outstanding. If I were in the market for one of these kits, this would be the best place in the world to make that purchase decision.
As a Lego Maniac that has built a few of these kits, the information in this book isn't much more than what is included in the Lego kit box. If you already own a number of these kits, this book is pretty but redundant.
Because Lego Architecture kits are priced at a huge premium over standard Lego kits, this book is a good choice as a catalog. As a dream book, it also succeeds. This is probably not the book for somebody that has collected a number of the Architecture kits.
