Robots


An avid robot collector himself, Kit Hinrichs has long admired the toy robot collection of designer Tom Geismar of Chermayeff & Geimar, and so when Hinrichs’s ongoing client Experience Music Project in Seattle sought a temporary exhibit for its Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame, he immediately saw an opportunity to showcase the robots that Tom had amassed over a period of about thirty years. The exhibition, Robots: A Designer’s Collection of Miniature Mechanical Marvels, designed by Hinrichs and Maurice Woods, includes 135 robots, ranging from a mechanical Godzilla, to printed 1950s tin toys and ingenious plastic transformers, to Japanese pop TV robot heroes and wooden Folk Art characters.
