Material related to designing a board game to be used as a teaching tool for students of architecture and construction courses. Created by both Chis Platt and another student, David Smith, as they decided to design this game instead of writing a 10,000 words essay. Features two items: the commission report, and the game equipment in a wooden box. This special subject output was submitted in October 1980.

A report with 27 pages done using typewriter. It also consists of seven coloured photos related to the game. The idea of the game is help students learn more about the building process from commission stage to completion as it shows the relationship between client, architect, and contractor. The idea was developed with the help of the tutor Drew Mackie, game consultant. The report gives instructions and explains how to complete the tasks at each stage.

Commission game equipment all kept in a wooden box, consisting of:
1- Small yellow cards, some of them with letter A, and others with letter C: "Architect and contractor boards for each commission received";
2- "Commission cards in envelopes";
3- "Surprise cards, for both architect and contractor";
4- "Plastic counters for movement through board";
5- "Typed calculation pads, blank pads, pencils";
6- "Two dice";
7- Rules booklet
