Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
Nothing opens its first retail store, because what’s more innovative than a physical storefront? The store will sell Nothing products, as well as those from its more affordable brand CMF. Because who doesn’t love a good ol’ fashioned flagship store in the age of e-commerce? The store’s design is meant to be “immersive”, which is just a fancy way of saying it’s a store. Nothing’s products are now available in a physical location, because that’s not something we’ve seen before.
