The Nothing Store is Opening a Location in Soho, London
Nothing is opening up a physical Nothing Store location in London's central Soho neighborhood on 4 Peter Street. Although the brand only released its first phone only a few months ago, it is set to function as a boutique instead of the traditional tech shopping experience as the design is inspired by classic retailers including Italy's Olivetti.
The store plans to offer all of Nothing's small lineup -- this includes the Ear 1, the upcoming Ear Stick, Phone 1, and more. Notably, to celebrate opening day, guests are able to receive free merchandise and purchase one of the limited 100 Ear Sticks that are available as an incentive to visit the physical space in the heart of London.
