Designed by Leong Leong in light of New York City's 'Building Fashion' collaboration, the 'Siki Im' concept store is not your regular retailer. Originally a shipping container, the space has been covered in a spray-on soy-based polyurethane foam and now sits beneath the Highline Park within the city's Meatpacking District.
With a bow-formed floor, the 'Siki Im' concept store has been transformed into a soft sculptural space. It encourages an interaction between customers, with the room and the mens' clothing displayed unconventionally within the unique boutique.
