Normally architects don't like to deal with the jiggle factor when designing a structure. But when your raw material jelly, it is a prerequisite. [Bompas & Parr](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/metaverse-distillery) are running a [jelly design competition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angel-delight-bubble-jelly) as part of this summer's London Festival of Architecture. The resulting molds and preparatory material will be auctioned on behalf of [Architects for Aid](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-goes-around-bandstand), a charity dedicated to providing building expertise to NGOs and community groups.

**Implications** - These jello creations use a popular childhood food to form an enticing architectural structure. With contemporary society being inundated with modern commodities, companies that use familiar games or associations from youth will attract a large consumer base yearning to experience these years gone by.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Jelly Design Competitions:** Opportunity for architects and designers to explore unconventional materials and create unique structures using edible mediums like jelly.
- **Nostalgic Marketing:** Using childhood games or associations to evoke nostalgia and attract consumers who long for the experiences of their youth.
- **Charitable Auctions:** Auctioning off creative and unique products for charitable causes, creating a win-win situation for both the consumer and the charity.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Architecture:** Architects have the opportunity to explore unconventional materials and push the boundaries of design with edible mediums like jelly.
- **Food and Beverage:** Food and beverage companies can tap into nostalgia to create innovative products or experiences that resonate with consumers.
- **Non-profit/ngo:** Non-profit organizations and NGOs can leverage creative auctions to raise funds for their causes, attracting donors through unique and one-of-a-kind items.
