Sleepbox

I'm more interested in a portable version.

I think it would have a good market in replacing shared hostel/dorm room accommodation for backpackers.

As an architect by training I find it really exciting to see something like this. The business of architecture is an incredible mess. Although I see a lot of big challenges in getting this to work well it's a great way to make a positive intervention in spaces that are often quite negative. Architects think about this kind of stuff all the time, but they rarely implement it.

All that being said these things look really overwrought, made from a strange collection of materials, and seem unlikely to be as clean as they should be. The rounded corners are driving me crazy.

But who's going to change and wash the sheets? Especially if it's being rented out by the hour. Will there be a full laundry after each and every user?
