My design is a calming pillow. I plan to make this pillow with white fabric outside and fill it with cotton or grains.
I’m going to dye the fabric with the plants which helps people to sleep well.
I did some research about the plants that help people to sleep.
- Jasmine.
- Lavender.
- Snake Plant
- Aloe Vera.
- Gardenia.
- Spider Plant.
- Valerian.
- English Ivy.
The three type of target users would be the elderlies, the stressful workers and the stressful students.
According to the research, the average time for People around 60-80 to stay on bed is 7.5-8 hours. However, they only fall asleep for 6-6.5 hours. People above 60 years old only have 10% of deep sleep time among total sleep time. People above 75 years old almost don’t have deep sleep. The workers aged from 25-35 are facing huge stress as they just start their career and they have many responsibilities. The students around 16-20 years old are facing the stress from exams and homework.
Different colors and patterns would be designed for different users.
