Event Recap: 2021 Gingerbread House Design Competiton

We had an impressive batch of gingerbread houses this year for the 2021 Gingerbread House Design Competition! In 2021, our challenge was for participants to choose a building from our Sweet Sixteen Round of BAF Arch Madness Competition or pick their own favorite Baltimore building! We had a total of 10 entries, which are now on display at The Center for Architecture & Design. Judging took place at AIA Baltimore & The Baltimore Architecture Foundation’s Annual Meeting & Holiday Party on Friday, December 10th.
