It Looks Like,

a Mecano kit,


 but without the nuts, bolts and pre-drilled beams,

 because this kit uses springs, magnets, and cables to create a realistic experience for hobbyist engineers and aspiring architects,

 the Brazilian company behind the Mola Model kit hopes to help users learn about real-world structural concerns like buckling and sway frame structures by incorporating flexibility that demonstrates the impact of environmental influences,

 the idea for the company came during Márcio Sequeira’s days as an architectural student: he was concerned about how well he was learning the real-world factors that he would need to take into account in his future career,

 Sequeira spent almost ten years working on developing Mola Model, and has funded all three of its editions on Kickstarter over the last five years,

the latest edition has currently secured over 150% of its goal,so kit looks like it will be going ahead, you can find the Mola Structural Kit 3 on Kickstarter,the Mechano of the future perhaps?
