Bompas & Parr is curating a jelly design competition as part of this summer's London Festival of Architecture. The resulting moulds and preparatory material will be auctioned on behalf of Architects for Aid, a charity dedicated to providing building expertise to NGOs and community groups.

Entries received before the deadline of midnight on 23 May will be transformed into jelly moulds by the team at Bompas & Parr. These moulds will be used to create jellies that will be judged alongside the entry material submitted. Judges include:

Matt Bell, CABE Director of Campaigns and Education, www.cabe.org.uk
Ivan Day, Food Historian, www.historicfood.com
Marcus Fairs, Editor-in-Chief, www.dezeen.com

Each entry will be judged on innovation, aesthetics and “wobble factor”. The best will be auctioned on behalf of Architects for Aid during the festival. To read the brief click here.

The competition is part of a series of events across the London Festival of Architecture that explore the relationship between food and architecture. The results will be on display to the public during the Architectural Jelly Banquet being held in UCL’s Quad on the 4th July. Tickets are available, from the 5th May, from www.lfa2008.org.
