Their collaboration started with 450 Warren, a condominium in Brooklyn’s Boerum Hill with an open-air court framed by wire mesh.

In Brooklyn, a Pink Building Stands Out
At the intersection of Myrtle and Vanderbilt Avenues in Brooklyn, a restaurant and fish market sit on one side of Myrtle, while townhouses and an apartment building line Vanderbilt.
