The House Of Confection

The proposed programme is designed in response to transform the existing site, The London canal museum that was known for its ice trade and ice cream production into a candy factory while keeping the history of confectionary alive within the site. The functions serve educational and social purpose such as sculpture making which helps with exploring art and creativity, exhibition area that educates individuals on the history of the canal and tasting area to provide an insight of how different candies taste. The space welcomes children, families, and adults.
