This weekend we found ourselves on the corner of Bethnal Green Road and Shoreditch High Street and noticed a cluster of shipment containers have been erected to form the world’s first 'pop-up mall'.
Founded by Boxfresh’s Roger Wade, the 60 containers house retail outlets with a street wear slant right in the heart of trendy central East london. Up-and-coming designers like OnePiece alongside established brands like Nike and Calvin Klein. Not to mention the top floor dining experience with yum morsels offered from Foxcroft & Ginger, Frae frozen yoghurt and Hop-Nano.
Charities Amnesty International and Art Against Knives also have spaces on the first floor selling artworks and collaborative designs by such East London-based designers such as Tracey Emin. This is so much more than a regular department store - we'll see you all there!
Boxpark opened on Saturday 3rd December
