Eo and Eam are Storage Systems Inspired by Male and Female Bodies

— February 12, 2014 — Art & Design
In a way, the coat rack becomes a substitute person that wears your jacket when you're indoors. The Eo and Eam serve to demonstrate this idea through designs that emulate the appearance of the human body. The Material Lust Lab has created a pair of contemporary standing storage systems that are intended to represent the physiological stereotypes of the ideal man and the ideal woman.

The male version is composed of blackened steel rods with flat sides that outline the T shape of broad shoulders. A smaller segment indicates the definition of abdominal muscles and an upturned protrusion denotes the groin. The female model is made from rounded tubular steel that's been bent to suggest the form of full breasts. The Eo and Eam coatracks prove to be practical anthropomorphic additions to your foyer.
Trend Themes
1. Anthropomorphic Design - Opportunities for creating products inspired by the human body, bringing a unique and personalized touch to everyday objects.
2. Gendered Design - Designing products specifically tailored to the male and female stereotypes, providing storage solutions that reflect individual preferences and personalities.
3. Functional Art - Combining artistic design with practical functionality, blurring the lines between traditional decor and functional storage solutions.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture Industry - Exploring innovative designs for coat racks and storage systems that add aesthetic value to interior spaces.
2. Home Decor Industry - Creating unique and artistic home decor pieces that serve a functional purpose and enhance the visual appeal of living spaces.
3. Fashion Industry - Collaborating with designers to incorporate visually striking elements related to human anatomy into clothing and accessories, pushing the boundaries of fashion.
