Goal: 

As students, we spend a significant amount of the day near campus doing school-related assignments and tasks. To allow us to do so while maintaining our health and well-being, the studio is designed to be a space that is equivalent to a home, where we can socialize, relax, and rest. Currently, the interior of the studio is intended to promote a productive, work culture as it is filled with desks and upright chairs that we use to work. The breakout room has two couches, both of which are uncomfortable for us to rest on. In addition, the blinds in the breakout room are difficult to handle and penetrate light in an uncomfortable way that impedes with our ability to sleep. In that context, NapTech is intended to function as a mattress that provide a comforting environment in the breakout room that automatically closes the blinds as the user sleeps on it.
