Enhance your purchase

The 3-D Home Kit lets you experience some of the work and rewards of being an architect, as you design and construct a detailed, three-dimensional model of your own house design. The kit includes complete poster-board materials from brick, stone, siding, roofing and decking to windows, doors, skylights, kitchen cabinets and appliances to construct a 1/4-inch scale model up to approximately 6,200 square feet or several smaller models. There are also poster-board materials for interior walls and stairs, plus an 18 by 24 inch Floor Plan Grid, and Scale Ruler & Roof Slope Calculator. Each sheet is 12 by 18 inches illustrated with a building material on one side and a 1/4-inch grid on the other side. The grid makes it easier to construct your model and the illustrations give the model realistic detail. Step-by-step instructions and seven house designs you can build are provided (if you don't want to design your own). There are also several Youtube videos of 3-D Home Kit projects. Whether you're planning a real or dream home, the 3-D Home Kit will help you develop your skills and imagination as you experience first-hand how architects, designers and engineers work (it's challenging work). One user described the kit as ''like Lego® Architecture on steroids.''

Duke University's ''Gifted Letter'' awarded the 3-D Home Kit (along with the Home Quick Planner, also by Daniel Reif) top honors. The editor wrote, ''The planner and kit provide everything needed to design and build a model home... furniture, windows, stairways, and appliances, right down to the ironing board... and bring the user through the architectural process from idea to finished product.'' If you enjoy architecture, the 3-D Home Kit is for you. Please upload photos of your model to this Amazon page. Thanks.

Not a practical approach

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2019

Verified Purchase

I was disappointed with this product. I failed to look at the reviews prior to my purchase. As mentioned by others, this is simply a series of sheets of printed with scaled architectural images. The thickness of the sheets doesn’t make it easy to create a 3D model. I would have given it a higher rating if the scaled images of furniture, appliances, and people were laser cut.

So cool!

Loved it! It came with very sturdy paper and many designs. This is great for kids and i enjoyed it! I wish it came with tape or glue, but overall it was amazing! People say this is hard, but a 10 year old did it.

It's not simple or clear

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

I got to ding this product, it's really a major waste of funds. It comes with zero sample or template house diagrams Rediculous, means you have to know architecture and design, you have to get your own templates. I wonder who is the target audience? Architects? Or any one?

This was a present to my mom and stepdad to get an idea of what there new home will look like in 3D. I am not sure when or if they will actually do this but I thought it was very clever and made a stand out gift.

The kit offers you lots to work with, but we were trying to replicate our house plans and gave up before we finished as the plans were too complicated.
