Gentle Monster Robot Head

I'm really impressed by this 2-meter tall giant robot head at haus shanghai.

earlier this year, south korean eyewear brand GENTLE MONSTER opened the doors of haus shanghai, its largest store to date. encompassing more than a commercial experience, the space delivers a provocative cultural approach by blending retail, exhibition and experimentation into the concept.

showcasing a surrealist and futuristic vibe, the brand has become famous for their eerie and somehow enchanting robots that unexpectedly occupy their retail spaces. built completely by themselves, the robots not only surprise visitors, but complement the brand’s vision.

I think this would be a perfect complement to the 1968 short story Meccano by Hugo Corea.
