Collaborations

Richard Chai partnered with design firm Snarkitecture for a new pop-up retail store underneath the Highline at 504 West 24th Street in Manhattan. The project entitled "Building Fashion"[5] and conceived by BOFFO and Spilios Gianakopoulos[6] aimed to promote collaborations between architecture and fashion. Snarkitecture's installation[7][8] re-imagined the retail interior as a glacial cavern, hand carved from eps foam. The store carried Chai's men's and women's collections and was open for 10 days in October 2010.[9]
