Love the adult building block s- Artplay 3D set from Spacecraft Australia.

This is such an amazing model making kit that allows you yo realise imagined cityscapes.

My daughter enjoys her own megablocks, but how nice it would be if I had my own building blocks for grown ups!



These architectural images from the 1960s were screen printed onto neatly tessellated wooden blocks made from old doors and salvaged timbers from recently demolished buildings.

Stewart Russell - founder of Spacecraft, discovered that some of these old doors were milled in 1880 and old- growth red cedar from West Canada. Apparently these trees grow to as high as 80meters and six meters round, & over 1500 yrs old. Debatably becoming more important than the buildings they became part of!

How amazing! Other works include this amazing Amsterdam bed linen. I think absolutely to die for!
