SleepBox


Fuck yeah! I'd use one.
I think this is a great idea to tackle the issues encountered during delayed flights, long gaps between transit or simply an economic solution to one night stop-overs in towns or cities between destinations, when travellers are usually bereft of a place to crash.
These are the sorts of ideas that will inevitably revolutionise the way humans will operate in the future. As the demands of business and personal lives increase the need to travel, we must look at these kinds of options to satisfy the growing demand for convenient and inexpensive, short term accommodation. The only addition I feel is needed to this sort of arrangement is the inclusion of toilet and shower facilities. Other than that, I think it's a great idea.

The designers had this to say;
The SleepBox concept is actually a freestanding box shaped sleeping capsule that are meant to be dotted around transport centers or expedition areas where people can have uninterrupted and sound sleep with great luxury. The bed of the concept is designed to change its linen automatically via rollers. The interior has been designed with functional ventilation system, Wi-Fi, TV, power outlets and storage space for luggage. Additionally, a quartz light has been used in between users to kill the inside germs. However, this thing has to be placed in a place where people really respect public property. Otherwise, they can be misused by different types of bad citizens.



Pretty cool!
