The Proposal
"Less is more" has increased in most of our lives from electricals to interior design, to the way we travel, to how we het our homes. We have been programmed to want more of these simple pleaseures, yet at what cost? How do overly simplified environments affect our lives and when does it strike the right balance?
Project scope:
Sleep and simplicity can live in perfect harmony and this is what the OCTAD sleep/ wake system provides. A simple design, simple to navigate, with a simple purpose; to help people sleep and live better. Sleep has become a problem among many Britons today and not many products provide a helpful soltion to this. The OCTAD gently calms you before bed nd gradually wakes you in the morning without the use of a clock face.
