MORI MONSTERS

- BY MORITZ WALDEMEYER

London-based designer Moritz Waldemeyer drew on Persian mythology for the two models in his collection—one aptly named Ghoul, the other with the more convention­al moniker Jenny. According to Waldemeyer, Ghoul feasts on the dead while Jenny is a spirit that takes over people and influences them to do terrible things.

Both of the Mori Monsters feature LED panels as eyes. Waldemeyer softened the look with a glass casing that is cartoonish in design.

“We wanted to balance it out by depicting them in a cute style inspired by the Japanese kawaii look. We set the eyes low in the head so it has a cutesy appearance, but then we chose red for the colour of the eyes, so there is the balance of cute and evil.”
