The artwork’s waterfall flows beyond the frame so that on a wall it pours directly out, or can be adjusted to spill out onto a flat surface. This LEGO 3D wall art set offers a calm, immersive and mindful experience for adults as you build the set from LEGO bricks. A treat for yourself or a Japanese gift idea for women and men who are art lovers, this model includes instructions to guide you through a creative activity.

This set looks like it features a new colour in these images (between the pink and pale nougat), similar in hue to vibrant coral, but without the retina burning saturation. I am particularly fond of the use of the minifigure crowbar to create the neck and head of the flying cranes.

A cottage with a cosy kitchen and woodland creatures including robin and nuthatch birds, a squirrel, frog, and snail add the final touches to this model – a perfect gift for adult fans of creative home decor.

This set brings a new element with the weeping willow leaf, while the autumnal theme provides an excuse to recolour some of the other leaf elements in reddish-orange. This set feels like it has potential to integrate with other LEGO Storytelling themes, to say nothing of the scope to borrow the tree designs for your own creations.

21064 LEGO® Architecture Paris – City of Love

 LEGO Architecture has felt as if it has been on the back burner for the last few years. While bringing us occasional blockbuster monuments such as the Pryramid of Giza, and Notre Dame Cathedral, the theme had a positively productive year in 2025, adding to the Skyline series, along with the Trevi Fountain and Neuschwanstein Castle. Will we see this trend continue in 2026? Paris – City of Love sees the Architecture theme return once again to Paris, merging the content of the Postcards and Skylines with a more mature aesthetic. The set has 958 Pieces, and will be priced at $AUD129.99 / $USD79.99 / 79,99€ / £69.99

Embrace your fascination with Paris and its iconic landmarks with this collectable LEGO® Architecture Paris – City of Love (21064) home decor building set for women, men and adults aged 18 and over. Create a display piece that makes a stunning architectural gift idea for you or any history or travel lover. Explore the starry sky and cityscape as you build.

Discover the details of the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral, the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre. Finish the set with the decorated ‘City of Love’ brick and the brick-built frame, then hang it on a wall or display it on a shelf in your home or office.

As you create the framed wall decor artwork, enjoy enhanced building with the LEGO Builder app, zooming and rotating with 3D instructions while saving and tracking progress – all from within the app. This premium set will appeal to you or any creative adult who loves history, travel or Paris architecture, and it makes a great gift for LEGO building fans.

Paris is a popular tourist destination, steeped in history, and a wide range of architectural styles, so I can see why the material is revisited within Architecture, as well as other LEGO Themes (thinking of the Icons 10001 piece Eiffel Tower and last year’s delightful Parisian Cafe.)

Each of these sets brings a pleasing result which will look quite at home around the home of any LEGO Fan losing interest in Pop-culture identities, whose home is already swimming in botanical models.

LEGO Art continues to surpirse me as it evolves, taking time to produce LEGO versions of established artworks – both painting and sculpture – while taking time to develop other ideas in parallel with this. With the post-pandemic wave of adults moving to LEGO Bricks as a creative medium, the theme continues to inspire while building on popular art styles from around the world.

Previous Gardens of the World sets – the Tranquil Garden and the Fountain Garden are still available through LEGO.com and other retailers, so it’s not too late to get in on the ground floor with these sets, particularly with double Insiders points coming up this =weekend on LEGO.com, and Black Friday sales just a moment away everywhere else.

Architecture sets out to reinvent itself again. I was fond of the postcard line; they were quite simplistic, and this new layered format is an interesting way to demonstrate the architectural highlights around the world, which brings a radical departure from the skyline series.. I can see London, New York, and Venice all being easily revisited in this style, but what other cities would you like to see explored in this new architectural style of build?
