The Coca-Cola Beatbox by Pernilla & Asif

The “Coca-Cola Beatbox,” a multi-sensory, interactive pavillon was recently completed in London in time of the Olympics. Designed by architects Pernilla & Asif, the structure is comprised of 200 red and white rectangular air cushions that provide the shell for a space intended to combine elements of music, technology and sports. As visitors ascend through the building, they will be able to alter a track created by Mark Ronson and Katy B, change lighting, and surround themselves with audio bytes consisting of recorded athletes’ heartbeats, squeaking sneakers on hardwood, as well as other immersive, interactive features. At its peak, they will then be able enjoy breathtaking views of the park and surrounding landscape.

adidas Originals by Jeremy Scott JS Wings “Fleece”

adidas Originals and Jeremy Scott team up again to present this multicolored iteration of the iconic JS Wings. A drastic contrast to the somber piece previewed at Bread & Butter recently, this almost kaleidoscopic “Fleece” is a guaranteed showstopper.

These are scheduled to drop on August 12 at $200 USD and were originally previewed in the Hypebeast Magazine Issue #1: The Synthesis Issue.
