Khoman Room
Khoman Room is an apparel company founded by Wow Khoman with Co-founder Spencer Ahn [28].
Khoman Room is a men’s lifestyle brand for contemporary streetwear based in NYC.

History
Khoman Room was founded in the summer of 2016 by Wow Khoman.
She sought out artists and designers she had met at the Rhode Island School of Design, one of whom, Spencer Ahn, is now the Co-Founder of Khoman Room [28].
Events
Most recent event was the popup event in collaboration with AKINGSNY, an apparel brand that works closely with AKINGSNY and Alan King (Alan Cheung) for production and brand management. The popup event was held in SoHo to present the newest collection of hoodies, shirts, and jeans. Khoman Room is dedicated to putting as much attention to detail to their designs [5].
This collection was inspired by Thai tattoos and the secular, animistic, and ritualistic roles of Buddhism in everyday life in Thailand. Illustrations of dogs translated into prints and embroideries mirror our own animus with which we strive to carve out a path for ourselves in life. The imagery used and their placements serve as talismans, serving as reminders that in the face of adversity and obscurity, great or small, there is always a chance for redemption. And the redemption cries out that there is a need for good—there is a need to compel, to fix, to propel. [1]
