是更高层次的乐高，艺术层次的乐高，非常有想象力，而且印刷非常棒
My husband and I bought this as a Christmas gift for our ten-year-old grandson, who says he wants to be an architect. We also gave him one of the Lego models shown in the book. The book covers a wide range of architectural landmarks which are included in the Lego Architecture set of models. If our grandson continues with his wish to be an architect, we will buy other models in this set for him as time goes on. We took a sneak peek at the book, and are very impressed with the layout, the information about the buildings, and the integration of the models with the real buildings. Lego had some impressive obstacles to overcome in creating the models -- many of them have rounded lines, and Lego blocks tend to be square. The Lego folks had to come up with some interesting solutions. We think this book and the models that go along with it will certainly stimulate our grandson's imagination.
As someone else wrote, as a middle-aged modeler with happy LEGO memories (as a child in Germany, it was everywhere), I love these representations, and the book wasn't bad. The photography is excellent, and I don't consider it LEGO's self-grandiose promotion of their own product. HOWEVER... disappointed in the lack of accuracy by Philip Wilkinson and Adam Reed Tucker. The timeline pages (10 & 11) are incorrect in which models are in the Architect and Landmark series. Sungnyemun Gate should be in Architect, and Burj Khalifa and Marina Bay Sands should be included in the Landmark group. I can see making that mistake, IF they weren't also including photos of the front of the LEGO boxes, which clearly stipulate which series each model is from. Perhaps a little inconsequential to some, but not to me, if I was going to attempt to collect one set or the other. But otherwise, no complaint about the content of the book. Well done.
I purchased this visual guide as the same time as LEGO Architecture Studio 21050 Playset. It is a beautiful book, well-printed.
It is more an accompanying text and visual guide to the individual models of famous architecture in Lego's architecture series, one building per model.
It is not a how to book to build specific models.
But, you know this book would be a great sourcebook for young people considering a career in Architecture.
I bought this as a christmas gift for my Lego-loving adult boyfriend. He is a big fan of the architecture series, but doesn't own any of the individual building sets. The book offers details about the different sets, and about the real buildings themselves. He wants to try to assemble some of the architecture buildings with the Legos he already has using the book. We were surprised at the quality and look of the book as well. It has nice glossy pages, very clean and beautiful presentation, and it comes in a hard protective book shell which is great. I would totally buy it again.
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.
