Not exactly everyone’s cup of tea, and the experience probably doesn’t come close. But you can just about imagine what it’ll be like sleeping on a pavement with cardboard over your body, like a homeless person. Original digitally-printed bedding design by Snurk (which means snoring in Dutch). Also available at dutchbydesign.
This is really quite unique and an important message behind the concept! Thank you for sharing this company that has such a funny name. Snurk..haha

This actually really makes me sick. Since when is okay to commodify other people’s misfortune.
Donating a portion of the proceeds to a non-profit does not erase the fact that this company is trying to make some kind of profit on a design that mocks street-living.
Would you be okay with people making lampshades with photos of earthquake-torn Haiti and hawking them as a luxury good?
People need to think more and really consider what it means to be most fortunate in a world where the majority of people are less fortunate than you are.
Why can’t you just make an otherwise lovely product and donate to the same organization, without making such an erroneous statement?

I’m sorry, Ange, this kind of insensitivity just really hurts me is all… I know these aren’t your product… And you did say allude to the fact that something was off with this design… I’m just not happy with this trend.
