FleaFollyArchitects describes Grimm City as "a spatial extrapolation of the Fairytales by the Brothers Grimm. An architectural satire, which foretells a future state run by creatures with Grimm-esque attributes of gluttony and greed taken perversely out of context. Whilst being lampoonist and satirical this architectural fairytale draws uncanny parallels with what many believe is the way cities are run today. Corrupt politicians, fraudulent banks, gluttonous churches and a great GDP are common in both the Grimm City and our own cities."

Grimm City: An Architectural Fairytale was on display at the Design Museum in London in November 2013, and then earlier this year it was installed in Habitat's Platform Gallery as part of the Space Craft exhibition. The below short film documents this intricate installation.
