While architecture and chocolate seem like an unliekly pairing, it was a natural exploration for Snarkitecture. "Much of our work looks to existing, familiar architecture or objects and explores ways to alter or reimagine their material to create something new and unexpected," the firm says. "Given the chance to work with Dandelion and use chocolate as a material was a completely new opportunity for us. The design we developed creates an element of surprise while referencing the preexisting proportions of Dandelion's standard chocolate bar. When you unwrap the bar, a fracture running around its edge is revealed. When pulled apart along this fracture, two perfectly opposite landscapes come into view. This break at the edge and the excavated surface texture of the two halves play on the idea of a 'broken' object that is, in fact, completely functional, and, in this case, also happens to be delicious."
