We were proud sponsors of The Gingerbread City Exhibition in London in 2022
We created the plant displays for the exhibition featuring tropical forest and deciduous forest planting to create an indoor natural oasis to sit alongside the gingerbread vision of a greener city. Our gingerbread plot Honeycomb Mallow Meadows showcases our biodesign installations in miniature, designed in collaboration with Akama Bambu. Come and discover our planet inspired living architecture and landscaping which transforms an unused parking lot into a pollinator paradise.
The Museum of Architecture’s Gingerbread City is an annual Christmas tradition full of delight. It’s been called ‘STEM meets sweets’ and ‘jaw-dropping and mouth-watering’.
It brings urban architecture to life through the delicious medium of gingerbread and sweet treats by challenging architects, engineers and designers to trade in their concrete, beams and glass for dough, sweets and icing and create a mini-city masterpiece of sustainable design ideas and building innovation.
This year’s bakers have been asked to imagine a greener, more verdant city - one full of pocket parks, rain gardens, vertical farms and green roofs with an abundance of pollinators and wildlife corridors thrown in for good measure. They will be building everything from a Candy Highline, Pancake Park and Honeycomb Meadows to a Frosting Forest, Trifle Tower and Caramel Town Hall. All the plots will show how the challenge of climate change, from overheating and flooding to air pollution and habitat-loss, can be addressed by introducing cutting-edge green technologies into our cities.
