Streetwear is stitched with secrecy and pride—codes known only to insiders. Fardous Khalafalla’s project builds on this language of exclusivity to design a space for East London’s street fashion scene. Combining storefronts, shared studios, and social hangouts, the building supports young designers working from makeshift bedrooms and alleyway backdrops. The architecture itself is self-built and layered, clad in reused billboards and fragmented signage. Fardous’s research traced the life of a drop—from social media hype to handmade garment—and let those flows shape her spatial layout. Here, repair is cultural infrastructure: supporting subcultures often ignored by formal planning, and giving them space to grow, flex, and thrive.
