The term 'Genuine Fake Human' might sound a little contradictory to you at first, but that is exactly what Shelterbank creates -- Genuine Fake Human skulls.
While these vinyl skulls are thankfully not made of real human bone (cue your sigh of relief), they are genuinely amazing works of art and realistic-looking (minus their funky colors).
Who says it needs to be Halloween to appreciate genuine fake human skulls?
Implications - As North American society becomes over saturated with similar images and ideas, corporations are relying on different design strategies to ensure their products stand out: macabre imagery and highly saturated colors. Corporations looking to garner attention can utilize these two design elements as well as tacking on other design ideas to truly differentiate themselves from their peers.
