A construction assembly piece comprises a resilient half rod (figure 1), wherein the half-rod comprises a rod divided in half longitudinally and having a set of teeth. The set of teeth comprises teeth disposed at intervals along a longitudinal length of said half-rod, located in alternate planes to either side of a longitudinal mid-plane of the rod. The teeth are configured to provide a snap-fit interlock with a corresponding set of teeth on the half-rod of an edge of a second corresponding construction assembly piece to define a full, preferably circular cross-section, rod (figure 2) where the two assembly pieces interlock. Also described is a construction kit which comprises a plurality of assembly pieces each defining a flexible plastic rectangle partly open along one edge to allow the rectangle to be flexed further open. The construction kit is particularly useful for modelling architectural structures having fluid shapes.
