GUERRILLAZINE presents a collection of imagery of the Comme des Garçons Guerrilla stores. Created by graphic designer Theseus Chan. The Guerrilla stores were a revolutionary retail project by Comme des Garçons that saw 'pop up' style stores from 2004-2009 more than a decade before they became popular. Temporary Guerrilla boutiques 'Anti-concept concept stores' were erected around Europe in unlikely places that had previously not been considered as fashion hubs. Such as Istanbul, Helsinki, Berlin, Reykjavik, Ljubljana and Barcelona among others. The stores experimented with low-cost store fronts with the interiors also having a low-cost, homemade type of feel, much like the design of Guerrillazine.

The paper is held to the cover with nails, scorch marks throughout the pages, uneven edges and a general feeling of being made by hand. A very unique design, much like the pioneering pop up stores.
