Orthopedic Side Sleeper Support Cushion | Industrial Design, CAD & Product Engineering Comfort products are only successful when thoughtful design meets real human needs. This concept explores the development of an ergonomic side sleeper support cushion designed to improve sleeping posture, reduce pressure around the hips and knees, and provide long-lasting comfort for side sleepers. The project began by studying ergonomic body positioning, pressure distribution, and user comfort to develop a shape that naturally supports alignment throughout the night. Multiple iterations were explored before refining the final form into a balanced design that combines comfort, aesthetics, and practical manufacturability. The cushion was engineered in SolidWorks as a fully parametric CAD model, allowing every curve, contour, and assembly feature to be refined with precision. The design incorporates a breathable removable cover, high-density molded foam core, internal airflow channels for improved ventilation, and an integrated magnetic attachment system that supports modular accessories while maintaining a clean exterior. To ensure the concept was ready for manufacturing, I also developed exploded assembly documentation, engineering drawings, section views, dimensional layouts, and production-focused design details. Every component was considered with manufacturing, assembly, durability, and user experience in mind. This project demonstrates my complete product development workflow—from industrial design and ergonomic thinking to CAD engineering, product visualization, and manufacturing documentation—while showcasing how functional consumer products can be transformed into production-ready designs.
