About Mola
The initial idea of Mola emerged during a postgraduate program in architecture when our founder was concerned about the abstract approach to structure-related topics. In 2014, after ten years of design development, we launched the first Mola Structural Kit.
Our goal is to assist the teaching and learning of structures more playfully and intuitively, expanding the knowledge of students, professionals, and laypeople on the functioning of the structures surrounding us.
Mola Structural Kit 3
Explore the world of cable structures and understand different structural concepts!
If you are into bridges and tension members, Mola Structural Kit 3 is your perfect choice. Discover a playful and tangible way to learn about funicular shapes, cable net systems, stayed and suspension bridges, tensegrity, form-finding, and more.
With Mola 3 cable elements, you can easily assemble bridges and hanging structures that behave just like real structures would.
Mola Structural Kit 3 works independently and it is also compatible with:
- Mola Structural Kit 1
- Mola Structural Kit 2
See and touch structural behavior
Understanding abstract concepts like bracing and buckling is often a daunting task. Mola solves this by bringing an intuitive and sensory experience to visualize and feel the movements and deformations of structures.
Simulate with scientific confidence
Mola is built upon our founder's Master's thesis in Civil Engineering. Its scientific validation shows that the model's behavior is very similar to a real structure, confirming Mola as a reliable tool for qualitative structural analysis.
Easy to use everywhere
Pull your Mola off the desk and easily explain a system behavior to blow away your clients. Enable all departments to use Mola in lectures, workshops, and competitions. Play by yourself and enjoy an intuitive discovery.

While i wanted to like this product, it is NOT designed to kids to take and go enjoy. I underestimated how much of a mess magnets can be (e.g. all the pieces stick together and makes the workspace a bit of a disaster). The directions are loose at best and not exact to how to build the more complex models. The problem with the magnet design is that when we were building the bridge it collapsed again and again. We finally got it to work and were on our last piece to assemble and one of the balls on the suspension bridge attached to a wrong piece due to magnetism and collapsed the entire project. My 9 year old (who has build complex technic models) was frustrated and went back to his lego build. The ball (cable) system is tedious and does not come together easy. At this price point I would expect something a bit better designed. I wont be keeping this.

This modular set is a fascinating way of seeing structural theory in action. I have used it to play with and design various types of structures, and the magnetic grip makes it easy to construct and mess around with designs. It is a really great quality and high-end model kit with a lot of pieces to build different structures.
