    HOUSEBOY

    SOMSOCAPPAREL™ and HOUSEBOY™

    HOUSE BOY is an original sofubi character created by SOMSOC GALLERY.

    The character is a duo consisting of “BOY,” a mysterious boy with an exposed brain designed to suppress thermal overload, and “HOUSE,” a super robot modeled after the exterior of SOMSOC GALLERY, which absorbs various forms of emotional energy as its power source.

     

    Through collaborations with a wide range of artists, HOUSE BOY continues to develop projects that captivate the hearts of sofubi collectors.
