LEGO 21016 Sungnyemun was a 325 piece Architecture set released in 2012. The LEGO 21016 Sungnyemun was officially launched at the Danish Pavilion during the EXPO 2012 exhibition held in Yeosu, South Korea. It was later available for purchase from June 1 in LEGO brand retail stores, LEGOLAND Stores. It was designed by Chicago architect Adam Reed Tucker. Adam signed this set that he designed himself.

Tucker attended Kansas State University where he studied Architecture with a focus on Philosophy of Design Theory, graduating in 1996. Following graduation he worked as an architect in Kansas City and in the Chicago area for over 10 years.
Seeking a professional outlet to further explore design, Tucker turned to creative building toys and specifically the LEGO brick as a medium. He quickly discovered a passion in using the brick as an outlet to explore and explain architecture and engineering principles and has displayed his models – skycrapers, roller coasters, fantasy architecture, and more at conventions and private showings. His passion led to working with the LEGO Group to develop new initiatives.

The creator of the popular, award-winning LEGO Architecture line, featuring iconic buildings from around the world. Tucker is also the founder of Brickworld, the largest LEGO fan convention in North America.

In 2009, his first exhibit featuring famous landmarks and skyscrapers constructed completely of LEGO bricks debuted at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and has since toured several museums in the U.S. including The Henry Ford in Dearborn, MI, The National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., and the Figge Art Museum in Davenport, IA.
