SHoP translates ideas into physical form by using three-dmiensional computer techniques with rapid prototyping and model building. Founding partner Greg Pasquarelli discusses SHoP’s provocative design approach and several recent projects, including the Me & Ro Store and the Museum of Sex, both in New York City.
