The annual exhibition asks architects, designers and engineers to create a sustainable city of the future. The entire gingerbread city shows that urban planning can be fun and tasty. /VCG Photo
More than 60 buildings have been baked. People can find that a cable car made of liquorice and the cycle lanes are entirely made of sugar. The fully-lit construction includes houses, office blocks, landmarks and bridges, as well as a cinema, library, city farm, sports stadium and botanical gardens. /VCG Photo
“If you can see yourself having fun with just gingerbread and then transplant that to something a bit more realistic, actually it’s not too far off and actually design is fun,” said Robert Nolan, an architect at APT. /VCG Photo
