Abstract
An architectural construction game including a building board is described herein. The building board includes a rectangular rigid board having recessed cavities in three corners and a transparent protecting sheet. A piece of VELCRO-type hook fastening material is provided in each cavity while pieces of VELCRO-type loop fastening material are provided on the undersurface of the protecting sheet so as to overly the cavities. The contact between the VELCRO-type hook fastening material and the VELCRO-type loop fastening material maintain the protective sheet onto the board. A plan may be inserted between the board and the protective sheet so as to assist in the assembly of an architectural construction.
Claims15
An architectural construction game comprising:
- a building board including:
- a board having a top surface provided with at least one recessed cavity having a predetermined depth suitable for housing a releasable fastening system consisting of two mutually engaging elements;
- each cavity being provided with the first of two releasably engaging elements mounted therein;
- a protective sheet having an undersurface;
- said protective sheet being mountable so as to overly the top surface of the board;
- the second of two releasably engaging elements being mounted to the undersurface of the protective sheet in a position overlying said at least one recessed cavity when the protective sheet is mounted to overly the top surface of the board so as to releasably engage said first of two engaging elements;
- a plan associated with said protective sheet of said building board;
- a plurality of building elements adapted to be assembled onto said protective sheet according to said plan.
A building board for use in an architectural construction game, said building board comprising:
- a board having a top surface provided with at least one recessed cavity having a predetermined depth suitable for housing a releasable fastening system consisting of two mutually engaging elements;
- each cavity being provided with the first of two releasably engaging elements mounted therein;
- a protective sheet having an undersurface;
- said protective sheet being mountable so as to overly the top surface of the board;
- the second of two releasably engaging elements being mounted to the undersurface of the protective sheet in a position overlying said at least one recessed cavity when the protective sheet is mounted to overly the top surface of the board so as to releasably engage said first of two engaging elements.
A kit of parts for constructing an architectural construction, said kit of parts comprising:
- a plurality of building sticks;
- a cutter device adapted to cut said building sticks;
- a building board including:
- a board having a top surface provided with at least one recessed cavity having a predetermined depth suitable for housing a releasable fastening system consisting of two mutually engaging elements;
- each cavity being provided with the first of two releasably engaging elements mounted therein;
- a protective sheet made of a transparent material and having an undersurface;
- said protective sheet being mountable so as to overly the top surface of the board;
- the second of two releasably engaging elements being mounted to the undersurface of the protective sheet in a position overlying said at least one recessed cavity when the protective sheet is mounted to overly the top surface of the board so as to releasably engage said first of two engaging elements;
- a plan mountable between the undersurface of the protective sheet and the top surface of the board.
