Fun with Architecture

I used these in conjunction to an Architectural design class I was teaching (Architecture is Elementary- awesome book btw). I liked the variety of stamps, and that they had samples on the cover of design elements. The book is great, but since I was using it with a class of 15 we didn't use that much. My complaint is that, not that I've had the set for 5 years, one of the sets is wrapping on the biggest stamps. I wrote the company and they did replace, it so that's great! the other one is perfectly fine. Both seem to frustrate the perfectionist bit, because it's really hard to stamp, especially with the smaller ones, and not get the edge of the square stamp holder in the drawing. I didn't mind it. I don't have COD and I'm not here to sell my stamp art :), but it made a few of the kids want to hurl them across the room. I would- & have- used this with a classroom, as well as having it out for kids to play with freely when they visit my home.

This looks like could be a great thing for my students to use as a center or extra activity however the stamps were corroded and warped and didn't really work. My husband had this set as a child and he said he absolutely loved it, however me afraid that the package that I received was also about 20 years old. The seller did allow for a refund with no problems.

Loved this as a kid and wanted to get for our nephew who loves architecture. Item was in plastic and clearly unused but stamps were warped and completely ineffective.

this is a fun, engaging way to get kids excited about the elementsof architecture by introducing the principles with fun stamps. Thestamp pad included was fresh and had plenty of ink.

Son LOVES IT!

Endless designs with simple units,Brilliant, will share it with my students to inspire and create new architectureI recommend it as a great activity to parents with their children,teachers, students, etc

The idea of this set is fantastic, and the book enclosed is a great resource about spatial configuration and architecture. However, the stamps are extremely sub-par. Too petite and of a very low quality plastic, they do not pick up the ink well. Over half of the stamps in my set were warped, rendering them useless.I would not recommend this set, and am extremely glad I tested mine before giving it as a gift.

Some of the other reviewers said the stamps were warped, and so were the stamps that I received. Basically useless. It would have been fun had they worked.
