# Progressive Sleeper Transit Designs 2050 Lab Designs a New Sleeper Car for Comfort On-The-Go By Amy Duong | Published 2023-04-19 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2050-lab References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2023/04/16/diagonal-sleeper-car-design-is-an-innovative-solution-to-increase-comfort-and-space-on-an-overnight-train/)  2050 Lab unveils its new [sleeper car design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-collection-1) that makes transit much more comfortable, especially when travelers are spending the night on a train. It creates coupe capsules that have two tiers with a unique diagonal angle to create a herringbone silhouette. Every car is separated from one another by a wall and curtain to give passengers a [sense of privacy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lepas-l8s-exquisite-space). The capsule has a sleeping space but it also has an extended berth and window. For those who prefer to do some work throughout the night, there is a table in that case. Additionally, the car has space to place [travelers' luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transit-carryon). Due to the limited space, many areas of its design serve multiple purses including the ledges with incorporated cushions to stand and rest.
