Greats Soho
SoHo Pop-Up Sneaker Store – New York, NY (Completed in under 4 weeks)
Conceived, designed, and built in less than a month, this pop-up sneaker store in SoHo was all about impact—drawing in passersby with a bold, sculptural presence. We imagined the interior as a monolithic block of wood, carving away a series of ellipsoid volumes to create a warm, cave-like environment. The result is a visually striking, curvilinear space that envelopes visitors and invites them to explore. The organic geometry contrasts the urban grid outside, offering an immersive and tactile retail experience.
Location & Date: Manhattan, New York, USA, 2018.

Building the store
We teamed up with a good friend of mine Ben Uyeda of HomeMade-Modern to design and build this sneaker store in Soho in under 4 weeks. The client is Brooklyn's only sneaker brand called Greats.
