Recently we had a post about the Wood Wood Temporary Space at Comme des Garcons Guerilla Store. Here are some actual pictures from the space. This Karl-Oskar Olsen and Brian SS design, as expected, uses lots of tape and vintage looking furniture for decorative designs; a lot of cardboard boxes were used for shelving and product display. The Wood Wood space is very unique from most other stores that use a sleek and high-end approach. Be sure to check out this space while you can.

Here we show you the sample pictures of the Nike Tennis Classic Pack, a collaboration between Fragment Design and Nike. These Tennis Classics all come in suede with three different solid colors: blue, gray, and maroon. Both logos are very subtle with the Swoosh cleverly perforated on the side of the shoes, and the Fragment Design logo quietly placed on the back heel. Another nice collaboration to drop later this year.
