The Pillow Cement iPhone Rest is not one's average smartphone dock. Instead of adhering to a typical techy appearance, it is much more sculptural and artistic for a whimsical aesthetic anyone can enjoy. Deceptive in design, the Pillow Cement looks like a comfy cushion that a small pet would curl on instead of an iPhone. But as its name suggests, it's made out of concrete not feathers.
With a very specific recess, the Pillow Cement iPhone Rest is made to hold Apple devices. Yet perhaps it can be home to other phones as well. Designed by Snarkitecture, the Pillow Cement boasts a cutout at the bottom so that cables can run underneath it. They are cast by hand in Brooklyn, New York.
