Our project is dedicated to the space around dreams and our ability to process our emotions, moods and stress in our sleep. We want to explore using objects in the bedroom as transactive memory and emotional deposits. Our goal is to enable users to be reflective of and to clear their heads of their emotions and ideas before they sleep, so that they do not lay in bed brooding.

The Mind Jar allows you to purge these worries and anxiety we take to our bed. The platform has paper and pen on which you can write your worries. You then fold the paper, drop it in the Mind jar and listen to the satisfying infinity dropping sound and let go of your worries and stress.

Mood Mobile reflects user mood depending on their day’s events when they settle into bed. The interaction with the mobile motivates deeper reflection and acceptance during rest period for the user.

Rise and Shine reflects the mood of the user based on previous day's input and wakes him or her up while motivaing them. It uses color and sound to enable the user to awake and to reflect on the emotions and stress that they have been subject to.

This project assists artists to paint and sculpt their masterpieces.

Angry Messages enables a physical and visceral style of communication when a long distance relationship calls for more than words can express.

An ambient reminder in the office that you're about to be late for your happy hour date!

Our garage door stays a few feet open about half the time. My poor dad usually runs outside in the cold before bed to make sure it is shut. I'd like him to receive a text if the garage door is open for longer than 60 minutes so that he will know to go close it.
