Gingerscapes, Boston Society of Landscape Archiects

"Best in Show", 2015

Did you know KZLA is an award-winning gingerbread house maker? KZLA won "Best in Show" for their "Gingerscape" titled "Muddy River Living". The design was inspired by the Muddy River in Boston and reimagined life in the city. Gummy ducks, gingerbread bridges, and teddy graham camping tents were all part of the gingerscape. 

The gingerscape was then included in the exhibition and fundraising auction hosted by the Community Design Resource Center of Boston.
