As part of this summer's London Festival of Architecture, the British jelly retailers behind Bompas & Parr will be holding a contest purely devoted to the best gelatinous architectural moulds. It all started during the 1990s when jelly consumption was down in the UK and two friends—one an architect—decided to make delicious wobbly spreads from organic fruit and bring back the jelly glory.
Entires for this year's contest are due May 23 and should include a detailed, scaled design that takes into account the collapse potential of too-tall or too-thin models. They warn: "there is fine line between outstanding 'wobble factor' and disaster." Check full contest rules at Bompas & Parr's website.
