Build the world you want to see with Blockitecture, a set of architectural building blocks by designer James Paulius. Cantilever and nest hexagonal blocks to create towers, cities, and dwellings.
The Frank Lloyd Wright set is made in the style of the architect’s Usonian homes, uniquely characterised by their low, sprawling forms inspired by the wide and flat landscapes of America. The shapes of its blocks are based on a honeycomb grid system similar to the hexagonal system Wright used to design many of his buildings. Stack and balance the pieces to create your own Usonian masterpiece.
Recommended for ages 6 and up.
