Dreaming Reality

“We spend half our lives asleep, so dreaming is as important as our daily lives,” believes James Teng. To provide an intimate space between dreams and reality, Teng envisages a soft, modular system of pillows that can be connected like Lego and tailored to suit each user’s slumber needs. These Dreaming Reality pillows can be made either as big as a bed or as small as a helmet. They also incorporate various patterns and textures to trigger different reveries. In a short, atmospheric film, he illustrates the scope of the concept. Sweet dreams!
