LEGO Architecture invites you on a global journey, showcasing iconic structures from ancient wonders to modern metropolises. But is replicating real-world architecture more challenging than designing entirely original creations? Original designs benefit from a blank slate—no pre-conceived notions of what "should be," only what *is*. LEGO Architecture, however, introduces abstract considerations. Does a designer aim for precise replication, or capture the essence, the mental image evoked by the structure's name?

How Many LEGO Architecture Sets Are There?
As of January 2025, the official LEGO store lists nine LEGO Architecture sets. However, the Eiffel Tower is categorized as an "Icon," not Architecture. Thorough browsing of the site is recommended to ensure no similar sets are missed.
LEGO Architecture sets are particularly popular among adults due to their sophisticated designs. The limited number of sets is surprising, given the potential for many architectural landmarks to be represented. The high demand, as evidenced by the sold-out Starry Night set at the Museum of Modern Art, suggests a significant market for these unique souvenirs.
