My friend (19, f) is studying architecture and has a birthday soon.
I wanna buy her something that she'll use but I have no idea what architects use today. Can someone advise me on this?
A pencil
Some Rotring product(s).

Buy her really nice pencils. Ask engineers. Or go to your local art store and buy PROFESSIONAL drawing pencils.
Or you could just ask her? It'll ruin the "surprise", but it might be better than getting her something you thought she'd like but she actually doesn't like.
If anything, getting her a nice metal architect's scale would work, although she probably would have one herself.
Or a T square.
Yeah. Tools would be tough, you don't know what she has or needs. She could of just got herself whatever you were thinking. Maybe get her a subscription to a trade magazine or something.

Yeah, I remember my dad having a few of those and I always wanted to play with them back in the day.
Do they still draw? I found a nice drawing board.

I think you've mixed up architects and draughtsmen.

I don't know what's worse, the fact that they want a hundred and fifty quid for a box of lego or that they felt the ned to put a slider on there in case you want to purchase multiple boxes at the same time...

It's a tad bit expensive but you can't say the idea itself is bad. You could probably get it on ebay for cheaper but still unopened or something.
