The Pillow That Could Have Saved Otherwise Ruined Friendships

Though this may fall slightly outside of the purview of either urbanity or travel, Architectonic's project Hosting a Guest proves to be a useful exercise, I imagine, for many of our readers who frequently, by dint of their breadth of knowledge and all-round friendliness, find themselves playing host. Architectonic basically worked with a number of designers to solve problems commonly associated with having a guest in a small space. Our favorite is this pillow designed by Debra Clark called the "Sharing Pillow" for use when there's only one bed and two people. I can't tell you how handy this pillow would have been in the past. I mean, so you're in bed with some girl/platonic friend in the middle of the night, your head next to hers. And then you know you start kind of spooning, and then you know, maybe a couple of kisses and the next thing you know, your friendship's ruined. With the Sharing Pillow, you don't even need self-control. It's like a friendship preserver/night erection prophylactic. And this, I imagine, must be quite helpful for nearly all of you 25-34 year olds out there.
