# Lap Pillows Crazy Pillow Design Replicates Woman's Lap By Cowbag | Published 2009-04-26 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lap-pillows-crazy-pillow-design-replicates-womans-lap References: [streetanatomy](http://streetanatomy.com/blog/2009/04/22/lap-pillow-etc/) & [himeyashop](http://www.himeyashop.com/product_info.php/products_id/4332) I am not sure how you would even start to think about something as crazy as this [lap pillow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pi-lap-desk). It is from Japan, and I am convinced there must be some unusual sexual fetish which led to its design. This also reminds me of the [huggable boyfriend pillow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comforting-pillow) from Travelodge a while back. I must admit I am struggling with this one, as I have never known a man to fall asleep in my lap. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Fetish-inspired Pillows:** Creating pillow designs inspired by unusual sexual fetishes can disrupt the pillow market and cater to niche markets. - **Comfort-focused Pillow Designs:** Developing pillows that provide unique comfort experiences, such as replicating the feeling of resting on a person's lap, can innovate the pillow industry and attract customers looking for unconventional pillow options. - **Novelty Pillows:** Designing unusual and attention-grabbing pillow concepts, like the lap pillow, can introduce disruptive innovations and appeal to consumers seeking quirky and conversation-starting products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Furnishings:** Exploring unconventional pillow designs for home furnishings can lead to disruptive innovations and capture the attention of consumers looking for unique and personalized decor options. - **Sexual Wellness:** Developing pillows inspired by unique sexual preferences can disrupt and expand the sexual wellness industry by providing products that cater to niche desires and enhance intimacy experiences. - **Gift and Novelty:** Creating novelty pillows like the lap pillow can disrupt the gift and novelty industry by offering unique and eccentric gift options that stand out in the market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multi-Purpose Travel Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allinone-travel-pillow-system.md) - [Cross-Legged Wide Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lap-chair.md) - [Two-In-One Neck Pillows Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neck-pillow-lounge.md) - [Oversized Hollow Pillow Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floof-snuggle-sack-and-floor-pillow.md) - [Oversized Sandwich Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kfc-chicken-sandwich-snuggler.md) - [Customizable Pocket Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sururu-pillow-p17.md) - [Adaptive Ergonomic Bed Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ostrichpillow-bed-pillow.md) - [Oversized Chicken Sandwich Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-sandwich-snuggler.md) - [Crinkle-Cut Fry-Themed Body Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crinkle-cut-cuddler.md)
