Blockitecture - Big City Set

Blockitecture - Big City Set. The Big City set includes 74 wooden pieces inspired by the architecture and public spaces of a sprawling metropolis.

Build the world you want to see with Blockitecture®, a set of architectural building blocks. Cantilever and nest hexagonal blocks to create towers, cities, and dwellings.

Art meets science in these sets of nesting hand-painted blocks. James Paulius’ intent was to create a timeless toy that challenges the user’s creativity and understanding of physical laws.

Blockitecture is a celebration of different architectural styles...

Blockitecture was awarded first place in the RIT Metaproject 03 design competition.

Recommended for ages 6 and up.
