Sleep suit is comical and unrealistic

My first reaction after sighting the Sleep Suit was, “Are you serious?” The Sleep suit designed by Forrest Jessee, as you can see, is a cocoon like structured pleat suit used for sleeping. The suit is designed for a sound ‘30 minute nap’ (Does the suit have an in-built alarm too?) Apparently, the suit is inspired by Buckminster Fuller’s practice of Dymaxion Sleeping which involves four, 30 minute naps over a period of 24 hours. Also, the structure of the material “is used as a means to create feelings of connections and disconnectedness”.


Through this suit, a nap is made to look like a psycho-anatomical pattern rather than comfort refreshment. Imagine having this suit on at all the locations one should actually technically steer clear off, especially the office! The 30-minute nap would be interrupted by roaring laughter of the entire workplace!
