Haus Nowhere

Haus Nowhere is a concept-based chain of commercial spaces specifically geared to fashion.[1] Locations are currently in Seoul, Bangkok, Shenzhen, Shanghai, and other Asian cities.[2]

History

Haus Nowhere was imagined in 2021 by IICOMBINED, Gentle Monster's parent company, as a project that combines retail shopping with technology and installation art.[3]

The first flagship location, the 14-floor Haus Nowhere Seoul, opened in September 6, 2025.[4][5] (Smaller locations had already existed in Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Beijing.[6]) Its top three floors are reserved for events, as well as the relocated headquarters of IICOMBINED, while the rest are open to the public for retail shopping.[7] Several celebrities, such as Tilda Swinton, Karina, and Felix, were in attendance for its opening ceremony.[8]

On December 16, 2025, a Haus Nowhere location opened in Bangkok, Thailand, on the M floor of Iconsiam.[9]
