'Sure to Motivate'For many budding architects the first step on the road to blueprints and T-squares is a trip to the toy store. The models are sure to motivate future architects—or future LEGO artists—to get building." —Architectural Digest |
'Sucked Me In'"The LEGO Architect has sucked me in for hours, and I can’t wait to build all of the plans." —GeekDad |
'One of the Most Useful Books'"This is likely one of the most useful books that I will ever own. Any of the LEGO-themed books from No Starch Press are as beautiful as they are practical." —Forbes |

I got this as a gift but I might return it instead and find it elsewhere. I flipped through some pages and the book itself is awesome so I know he’d love it. I just can’t gift a new book with a bent and tear at the corner of a hard cover. The pages are wavy but I think it can flatten out if I place it under something heavy for a few hours.

For best results, I think you should have the LEGO Architecture Studio box though I don't think the company sells this anymore. All the how-to-make models are shown as mono photos and the Architectural box only has white pieces (but with clear acrylic window pieces).
The book is also a sort of primer about architecture but very superficial I thought the colour photos of the building were rather well chosen and they are all captioned. Many of the buildings are also LEGO models made by professionals and using thousands of pieces.
I think it's well worth getting if you can find a cheap, good copy, say, less than eight pounds.
