LEGO Architecture transports you on a global journey, from ancient wonders to modern metropolises. But is replicating real-world structures more challenging than designing entirely original creations? The latter offers the advantage of a blank slate—no preconceived notions of what "should be," only what *is*. LEGO Architecture, however, introduces abstract considerations. Does the designer aim for a precise replica, or capture the essence, the mental image evoked by the structure's name?
