The Ostrich Pillow Mini.
It was unleashed on the world by Studio Banana Things.
Is it silly? Would you use one?
With an Ostrich Pillow Mini, you are supposed to be able to sleep anywhere.
“Some of our customers had been asking for a smaller product to fit comfortably into a bag or pocket,”stated Shadi Ganjavian-Connor of Studio Banana Things, previously known as Kawamura-Ganjavian.
“Also we have been observing people’s sleep postures and thought wouldn’t it be great to enable more napping positions through engaging our hands and arms. Last but not least we wanted a really good pillow fight and thought this product would fit the bill!”
A grey exterior and a lining in a choice of four colors, was developed in response to user feedback on the original Ostrich Pillow.
The cushioned pads are filled with silicone-covered micro-polystyrene balls to mould the pillow to the shape of the user’s head.
The Ostrich Pillow Mini is currently raising funds on Kickstarter and reached 105 per cent of its $15,000 (£10,000) target within just 48 hours.
“We have truly been overwhelmed by the reception – we did not expect it at all,” said the studio. “Our fans stretch across the globe and many of them have supported all four of our Kickstarter projects.”
