About Adam Reed Tucker
One of only 12 LEGO Certified Professionals in the world, Adam Reed Tucker holds a Professional Degree in Architecture with an emphasis on the Philosophy of Design Theory from Kansas State University. While working as an architect in the Kansas City and Chicago regions, he came across a book entitled “The World of LEGO® Toys” by Henry Wiencek, and was so inspired by Wiencek’s adaptation of architectural possibilities using the LEGO Bricks as a medium that he set out to explore this idea further. In 2006, he founded Chicago’s first LEGO fan convention called Brickworld, and in 2007, Adam’s company Brickstructures formally joined forces with The LEGO Group to create a new line of LEGO Architecture products. As a LEGO Certified Professional, Adam focuses specifically on the design and construction of skyscrapers and other architectural structures, reaching out to the public via events and school programs.
