MINDFULNEST: Set your space and reset your mind

MindfulNest is an at-home device that changes the conditions of your physical space through playful and creative tactile interactions, which stimulates your sensory system and prepares you for the next move with a grounded mental state.

Research has proven that we can only focus on one thing at a time, and task switching can actually be one of the most exhausting experiences our brains can go through. It takes a large amount of time and energy for people to regain their concentration and ground themselves in the present after constantly switching tasks. This is the problem that Mindfulnest is trying to solve. By offering the opportunity to creatively adjust the lighting and sound in your immediate environment, this device eases the transition from one task to another while providing a brief break from our busy days.
