Description
A skyscraper for the shelf
The Architecture line recreates famous buildings as small display models for a shelf or desk. The Willis Tower stands in Chicago and was long known as the Sears Tower. This 69-piece set shows it in a highly simplified form, as a slim dark tower. It is not a toy but a display piece, and it can be finished in one quiet evening. The small footprint also means it sits comfortably between books or plants without taking over.
Black and grey as a style choice
The main colours are black, light bluish grey and white, and together they set the sober character of the model. The dark facade parts echo the glass of a high-rise, while the pale bricks form the base and lettering. With only 18 different part types the parts list is short and clear. The set has no splash of colour, and that restraint is part of the Architecture idea, which favours elegance over playability.
No minifigures
The set includes no minifigures, which is no surprise for an architectural model. It is about the shape of the building rather than everyday scenes. If you collect several Architecture sets, you can line the towers up next to each other and form a small skyline. The Willis Tower also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who knows Chicago, since it recalls the city without demanding much space on a shelf.
Parts list and reuse
The set came out in 2011, and the number 21000-2 points to a second version of the release. The parts list on this page lets you check that a second-hand copy is complete. The What can I build? tool also shows which other models you can make from these bricks and your own collection. Black and grey standard bricks are always in demand when you design skyscrapers or city scenes of your own.
