This is my second kit purchase in the past year, and I love it (them). It's also my first Lego purchase (in my life). Here's the appeal as a wanna-be architect...
1. You can improvise in building stuff. There's no defined beginning, middle and end as with other Lego kits.
2. I'm not a kid, so the all white bricks appeal to me. Clean, simple.
3. It's all about critical thinking. I see this as appealing to ages teen and above. It really appeals to adults like me.
4. There are a lot of small pieces that, over time, I've learned to use. That's part of the challenge. Start with the basic bigger pieces and get more emboldened over time! Trust me, there's enough to toy around with. Trial and error, you might say.
5. The book that comes with it is nice/pretty, kinda self-serving. BUT for broader concepts and ideas I recommend The Lego Architect by Tom Alphin. Also, if you live in a big city like me (Chicago) there are plenty of inspirations.
6. Yep, it could use a big base plate. I bought a set of base plates (non-Lego) but they were a tad flimsy/non-secure to construct a base, so I've been sticking with the plates provided. Just connect and reinforce 4-5 or more.
7. Finally as you can see from my pictures, it's all about trial-and-error and improvising. And, again, critical thinking and having fun with the process.
I think one day I might buy a third kit (when the price and money is right) as some things I have built I love and don't want to tear them apart and start over (although I have built a few that didn't quite feel "right" and I deconstructed those).
Bottomline: I love Lego Architecture Studio. This would also make a great/unique gift for any older teen or adult of ANY AGE.

Customers say
Customers find this LEGO set fantastic for builders, with hours of fun and creativity, and one customer noting it keeps kids occupied for long stretches of time. Moreover, the set provides inspiration for aspiring architects and encourages individual initiative, while offering many pieces with infinite possibilities. However, the included book receives mixed reactions - while some appreciate the architectural principles guide, others find it useless as an inspiration source. Additionally, opinions on value are divided between those who consider it a great value and those who find it very expensive.
