While in school, I confess that I have spent many nights staying up late frantically finishing a paper due the next week while futilely keeping my head up amidst crushing exhaustion. What I needed was the Twist Chair.
Designed by Miray Oktem, the Twist Chair invites you to sit backwards in it in order to use the high 'backrest' as a headrest instead. Although I feel that people will use this out of laziness rather than for productivity's sake, it's still an interesting concept.
