The Brendan Jamison sugar cube replica of London's [Tate Modern Museum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coldbrew-coffee-kombucha) is quite the masterpiece. The Irish sculptor is creating the sugar replica for the London Festival of Architecture.

The amazing replica comes equipped with a chimney that extends a meter high and all the trimmings of the real Tate Modern. The sculptor already has quite the resume of [sugar buildings, including a gigantic castle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bland-castles). The Brendan Jamison sugar cube replica is quite innovative and uses a great medium for an entirely new take on architecture.
