Hi Huneybees,

Featuring the exterior of HAUS NOWHERE SEOUL and celebrities at the opening event.

Seoul just welcomed something extraordinary - HAUS NOWHERE SEOUL, the latest experimental retail project by GENTLE MONSTER. Known for pushing the boundaries of design and imagination, HAUS NOWHERE isn’t just a store. It’s an experience!

HAUS NOWHERE is built on the concept of “a space found nowhere”, breaking free from traditional retail rules. This is the fourth HAUS NOWHERE in the world, opening alongside IICOMBINED’s new headquarters, and it embodies the theme “The Future Returned.” Spread across multiple floors, it’s a futuristic hub where all of IICOMBINED’s brands come together in one immersive space.



Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll find inside:

GENTLE MONSTER – Bold Collection with Tilda Swinton

At the heart of the Seoul pop-up stands a massive asymmetrical structure, its dramatic form contrasted with intricate patterns of the Bold Collection’s signature symbol — a design that ties the entire narrative together in one cohesive experience.

To bring this bold new chapter to life, Gentle Monster collaborated with the incomparable Tilda Swinton on a cinematic campaign set within HAUS NOWHERE Seoul. The film merges pulsating soundscapes, surreal architecture, and Swinton’s commanding presence, blurring the line between the real and the virtual.

It’s not just a campaign, it’s an immersive journey into Gentle Monster’s ever-evolving cultural universe, where art, fashion, and creativity break all boundaries.


TAMBURINS – Sunshine Perfume & AI Photo Experience

Perfume brand TAMBURINS introduces "Sunshine" - a dreamy fragrance inspired by the image of a puppy napping on a warm blanket and its whimsical dream of running through a forest in shining armor.

 At HAUS NOWHERE SEOUL, you can take part in the Sunshine AI Twin Look photo experience, matching outfits with the scent in a playful, tech-driven way.


ATiiSSU – Tracker Collection

Headwear brand ATiiSSU presents its new Tracker Collection, blending caps with knitwear, gloves, and scarves. Inspired by trailblazers who forge new paths, this bold collection debuts at ATiiSSU’s second-ever store within HAUS NOWHERE SEOUL.



NUDAKE TEAHOUSE – Scented Tea and Desserts

NUDAKE is known for blending food and art, and now it explores tea like never before. At the new NUDAKE TEAHOUSE, expect “Scented Tea”, tea that's layered with fragrances that awaken the senses, paired with desserts crafted as edible art. It’s a place where storytelling, taste, and scent intertwine.


Nuflaat – Dress Your Table

Making its debut, Nuflaat is a tableware brand that transforms dining into a sensory experience. With the slogan “DRESS YOUR TABLE,” it blurs the line between functional design and fashion, turning everyday meals into artful moments.


Max Siedentopf x HAUS NOWHERE: More Is More

At the heart of HAUS NOWHERE is a breathtaking installation by artist Max Siedentopf. "More Is More" transforms the space into a living, breathing sea of black plastic bags that rise and fall like waves. Amidst it all, a hyperreal elderly man holds a single shimmering gold bag which is a beacon of curiosity and hidden treasures. It’s a poetic reminder that even in chaos, beauty and meaning can be found.


HAUS NOWHERE isn’t just retail, it’s a cultural playground that stimulates emotions, sparks curiosity, and constantly evolves. From fashion and fragrance to tea and tableware, every corner invites you to reimagine how we shop, create, and experience the world. HAUS NOWHERE aims to offer all visitors new inspiration and experiences through emotional stimulation and will continue to evolve through ongoing creative endeavors and innovation.

If you’re heading to Seoul, this is definitely a must-visit. HAUS NOWHERE SEOUL is more than a store, it’s where the future of retail lives.

I first visited the ALIVE MUSEUM in Jeju and when they came to Singapore, Suntec City, I was the first to jump right in! I've already gone there on several occasions and shared my experiences - http://huneyzworld.blogspot.sg/2014/08/see-art-pieces-come-alive-at-alive.html and http://huneyzworld.blogspot.sg/2014/12/the-penguins-of-madagascar-has-invaded.html


That's why I'm just bringing you on a tour around these 2 new zones and show you what's new. I think these new experiences will be great to go along with your little ones or loved ones. I would suggest that you go in a group of 3 or more, coz for hubby and I to get our shots together, I had to ask the friendly staffs for help... =X


So, let's begin with the Young @ Heart Zone, don't forget to bring you lollipops along ~~~


In the Young @ Heart Zone, there are balloon animals to ride, friends to meet at the circus, be featured on a magazine or buzz amongst butterflies and huge flowers as you get transported to Faerie Tale land as Thumbelina...




Did someone just washed my hubby?!
Our focus was on Live.Laugh.Love Zone that day though as it was not everyday we get to have nice backgrounds for our couple photoshoots eh? It's definitely the place to remind you of your love, live in the moment and laught at all the quirky shots you will get. So be creative!


In fact, for couples who are looking for some quirky wedding photoshoot backgrounds instead of the usual Marina Bay backdrop, you might wana opt for this few spots for some laughs during your wedding day...

Stop getting frisky with another girl!  (;`O´)o
That's better eh? Thinking of a when we get older moment there...
Yup! We add up to LOVE!

See! Told ya! You can make a wedding story here...

He proposed?!
Our wedding night!
Yup! DND, Just married... =X
And for bonus round, there's new additions of the Dreamworks' Penguins Of Madagascar, they are so playful and you can have more fun with the new Penguins X Singapore backdrops! It's always a surprise when I visit the ALIVE MUSEUM...




Oh! Before you go, be sure to print a snapshot of your best photos! It was down for maintenance that day, guess I'll pop up when I'm at Suntec City again. =D

| |
Hi Huneybees,


Are you guilty of cycling through channels , looking for something interested / exciting to watch?
That period of feeling bored in front of TV will soon be gone as Comedy Central Asia will be launching entertaining variety show Lip Sync Battle in the month of July.



Lip Sync Battle is a social media sensation programme that is based on the pop culture phenomenon of lip sync battling. This Viacom original series, which originated on Viacom’s Spike TV in the U.S., features celebrities going head to head – lip-syncing the song of their choice – battling for the coolest bragging rights on the planet. It's like my Dubsmash moment going on TV! :X

Anne Hathaway performs Wrecking Ball on Lip Sync Battle
Former World Heavy Weight Champion Mike Tyson performs Push It on Lip Sync Battle
It's gona be sensational match up battles and I think some of the interesting, not-to-be-missed ones have to be the Jimmy Fallon vs. Dwayne Johnson, Anna Kendrick vs. John Krasinski, and Anne Hathaway vs. Emily Blunt battles! Lip Sync Battle is premiering in Asia on Comedy Central on weekdays starting Tuesday, 28 July at 7.30pm (TH/WIB), 8.30pm (HK/PH/SG/TW) and 9.30pm (MY).

Fans in each cluster who cast their votes will stand a chance to win cash prize or prizes worth up to US$1,000.
