Experiential food design duo Bompas & Parr’s Alcoholic Architecture arrives in Borough Market, featuring a walk-in cloud of breathable cocktail as part of an installation that explodes drinks to the scale of architecture.

In this fully immersive alcohol environment - the cloud is entirely composed of fine spirits and mixer at a ratio of 1:3 and made using powerful humidifiers to super-saturate the air - alcohol enters the bloodstream through primarily the lungs but also the eyeballs.

Alcoholic Architecture sits next to the UK’s earliest gothic cathedral and on the site of an ancient monastery. These themes are channelled through a drinks lists entirely comprised of spirits and beers created by monks: potations such as Chartreuse, Benedictine, Trappist beer and even the notorious Buckfast. All will be featured in elegantly balanced, refined and luxurious conventionally served drinks that guests can take back into the cloud.

Alcoholic Architecture is open until early 2016. Tickets are available on their website and are priced at £10 - £12.50. Visits will be limited to one entry per day at 50 minutes a pop, which the duo claim is the equivalent of sipping one mixed drink.
