Cinder Block Pillows – Comfortable Concrete for the Modular Man

Men these days are expected to be metro enough to take a crack at decorating their caves, but if throw pillow accents just aren’t for you, consider these awesome cinder block pillows. Most guys have joked about building an entire home out of cinder blocks and milk crates in ultimate bachelor style, so why not take a tongue in cheek approach and keep the looks without the discomfort. Originally made for a Japanese art show, each ‘ cinder block ‘ is actually memory foam wrapped in a layer of polyurethane foam to make it more durable, then covered in felt for extra softness and a textured concrete look.

Cinder Block Pillows – Keep the Bachelor Look, Lose the Discomfort

Since they’re actually the size of a cinder block, the pillows can be configured in a myriad of ways similar to how you would use their concrete counter parts. While you can’t buy them yet, there’s nothing stopping you from stealing this idea for your own man cave. They look ridiculously comfortable, and appeal to every guy who wants to be able to build with his Lego and then blissfully fall asleep amidst them like a child after a day of play. Bonus points if you terrify the next girl you bring home by playfully tossing her onto what appears to be a patio like surface made of concrete blocks. The home page for the soft cinder block pillows is here, but have Google ready as it’s originally in Japanese. Like the look of these?
