Arckit is a tangible modelling system that allows architects, or those simply interested in architecture and design, to create their own miniature cities and buildings.
Arckit's original product was a modelling system that allows people to build and personalize miniature homes. Its newer products include the Arckit Cityscape, the Arckit Masterplan, and the Arckit Masterplan Pro – all of which allow users to build their own dream cities and suburban neighborhoods. The 3D modelling system comes with a series of modular pieces that can be put together to form varying structures, as well as multicolored and multi-shaped roof tops.
The Arckit modelling system is ideal for budding architects who would like an outlet for their creative planning skills.
