Siesta Matter is an investigation into the circular knitting technique and how a multisensory- textile experience can improve well-being in a workplace. The primary motive is to explore qualities in knitted textiles that can improve our feelings of relaxation. A series of experiments were conducted to analyze the different resting positions around inflatable objects covered with knitted tubes.
Siesta Matter suggests continuing the research on different possible materials that activate more senses that causes calmness, such as haptic aspects, temperature, pressure, and sound.
This project can positively impact the wellness industry and thus create a better resting life for humans in the workplace.
