Bedtime Stories


Sleepless is a collaborative project between London’s Great Eastern Hotel and the students from the Royal College of Art’s Design Product department. The goal of the project is to enrich the experience of the hotel’s guests and make their stay more than just a place to spend the night.

Tiago da Fonseca’s contribution is a multi-layered experience titled Bedtime Stories.

“Once upon a time there was a blanket. This blanket had several sheets containing a traditional bedtime story. Each “page” adds a layer of linen making you warmer (or cooler) and comfier hopefully guiding you and your partner into a pleasant night’s sleep” is how she sums it up.

Brilliant. Maybe one day you will be able to request the bedtime story that adorns your room and who knows maybe a whole new industry of print on demand for linens is just around the corner.
