Architecture is a theme introduced in 1962 that ended in 1963, but was later re-released in 2008 and is still selling sets at the present date. Since 2008, all the sets have been designed by Chicago architect Adam Reed Tucker. The theme focuses on taking famous structures of unique design, such as Falling Water, and turning them into sets. The Architecture theme is one of a few themes that is based upon the real world, and is exclusively comprised of microscale models. The models are often considered overpriced (most likely because they are aimed at adults), but the unique design and pieces overcome this.
