It’s that time again: Edible Architecture!
Posted on Tuesday, February 10th, 2015
Since 1989, the ARCHITECTURAL TECHNOLOGY program of Algonquin College has been having a mid-semester ‘fun activity’ called “EDIBLE ARCHITECTURE”. Its purpose is to provide the students and staff with an opportunity at designing something ‘fun and unique’ during the ‘bleak midwinter’ blues, as well as an excuse for a major “sugar rush”! This Competition is open to any student in an ACCE program to participate. Great prizes awarded for winners!
The rules are very simple; each entry must be totally edible (including fasteners, glue and structural support) and must portray some architectural or design theme. The base it is presented on can be plates or boards for stability.
Rules:
Maximum three (3) people per team.
Entry must be COMPLETELY edible except plate.
Maximum size: 18” x 18” x 12”h
Entries and team members must Register in the 3rd floor Crit Space by 11:30am on Friday, Feb 13th in order to be considered for judging.
Base for carrying and presentation does not have to be edible.
The event is to be judged on FRIDAY, February 13th @ 12 noon in the 3rd floor Crit Space after the President’s coffee break. Voting for People’s choice award will start at the event. Anyone from ACCE can enter… come and have some fun!!
