Recommendation: yes 27 / 30 by JimBee

It was hard to quantify the ratings for such an nontraditional set, but I would say it earns top marks. There doesn't seem to be anything majorly lacking in any area. My main gripe with the set has to do with the limits placed on color selection, but I suppose including more colors while keeping the large quantities of parts would only increase the price. As it is, 21050 makes for an excellent beginner's guide to architecture and LEGO.

Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 from 151 reviews

As an architect, I wish this was around when I was back in college. It is an amazing set, great for making models and studying forms. There are 2 things which I would enhance; it would have been better if it came with a base and if you build in larger scales, you will run out of lego pieces. That is why I intend to purchase another one.

You may be able to order a similar palette of parts for even less But aside from hard numbers, it's the experience you're buying and I can safely say it stands apart from just about everything else LEGO has to offer.
