STEAM Principles in this Kit...

Geometry

Investigate spatial reasoning and nesting, where three-dimensional shapes are designed to fit together with high precision to maximize internal volume.

Design

Blend form and function by assembling precision-cut components into an elegant, Art Deco-inspired masterpiece that hides complex mechanics behind beautiful aesthetics.

Physics

Explore the balance of forces and friction, learning the scientific requirements for keeping one component stable while allowing another to slide smoothly.

Performing Arts

Develop confidence and public speaking skills by mastering the timing, misdirection, and storytelling required to flawlessly execute a captivating mechanical illusion.

Neuroscience

Discover how the brain uses visual continuity to "fill in the blanks," making us see a solid object even when it’s being hidden right in front of us.

Engineering

Discover how mechanical control allows a user to change how a system behaves, highlighting the relationship between physical inputs and the resulting motion.

Useful Accessories

Responsibly Harvested Birch

Custom-milled plywood by Koskisen from sustainably managed Finnish forests. Every sheet is 100% traceable and CO2-neutral, ensuring we protect the planet while we build.

Safe for the Maker’s Home

We use indoor-grade plywood with ultra-low emission glues (M1/E0 certified). Each kit is hand-finished with 100% natural shellac—no toxic odors, just the scent of real wood.

Local Design and Craftsmanship

All products are designed and cut in-house and hand-finished and packed right here in our Clayton workshop at the base of Mt. Diablo. Local heart, industrial-grade quality.

About the Creator

I'm Garth, a 25-year veteran of product engineering and children's book illustration. My goal is to bridge the gap between high-end mechanical design and the classic art of storytelling.

Frequently Asked Questions

How difficult are they to build?

They are generally easy to assemble and don’t require any tools, though a small awl or pointed object like a pen could come in handy for separating small interior pieces like windows.

Is glue necessary?

The joints are precision cut to fit together snuggly, so glue isn’t required. You can optional add a small drop of wood glue to some joints or small exterior signs to make them more durable or permanent.

How long do they take to assemble?

Most of the house kits can be completed in 30-40 minutes.

Are lights included?

Each house includes it’s own battery-powered LED light (battery included).

What kind of batteries and how long will they last?

The lights run on 2 CR2032 coin batteries which are widely available and easy to replace. Typical run time is 24-48 hours.
