Learn while Playing

Arckit is the first company to ever receive the official STEAM Accreditation Stamp of Approval by the Toy Association of America and Dr. Amanda Gummer’s Good Play Guide™ (learn more here). At the very heart of Arckit is a truly ‘open-ended’ and ‘hands-on’ architectural model building tool that introduces a whole new method of learning and discovery while having fun building without restriction.


Today architecture is becoming increasingly recognised as a multi- disciplinary medium that not only teaches fundamental practical, social, environmental and STEAM subjects, it also encompasses the 5 C’s - Creativity, Collaboration, Communication, Critical and Computational Thinking.


Our aim is to encourage our future designers and visionaries to thing freely, develop essential all-round skills and ultimately to help them to become positive change makers in society.

Bring it to life

From figurines to trees, fishing to camping, bunnies to bears, a host of bespoke Mountain Cardboard Pop-Outs are included in the Mountain Living kit to bring storytelling, scenery and scale to your models.

100% Plastic-Free Packaging

In Arckit’s commitment to helping improve the environment, all new kits including Arckit Mountain Living contain zero plastic packaging and instead use compostable material made from potato and corn starch. In addition, Arckit Mountain Living has a reusable box for storing your components.

Think of Arckit like any instrument, the more you become familiar with it, the more amazing creations you will bring to life. 

Can I build more than the sample models?
