Piumini Danesi is an Italian company for duvets, pillows, and bed comfort. In an interesting turn of events, they have chosen the sport of chess as one of their primary research methods.

Daniele from Piumini Danesi shares, “We are all caught up with the bustling of work, family, and city life, hence we often tend to forget to take care of ourselves and we underestimate the importance of recharging our own batteries with simple natural sleep. And this is so important for the game of chess where concentration and mental strength is required.”

It is very interesting that a duvets and pillows company chooses chess as primary research method. How did you come up with this decision?

In Piumini Danesi we are not professional players, but all are very passionate about chess. Every lunch break, after work, or even when we go to bars at Rome our colleagues open a chess set and play some games. Having this company internal culture for years, combined with the global rise of chess in recent years and the large amount of news that reach us on a daily basis were the first things that pushed us to researching with chess players. Our experience in the field of providing comfort, relaxation, and good night sleep have led us to the conclusion we can be helpful to the performance of multiple chess players around the world.

You say Piumini Danesi can help the performance of a chess player. In what way?

We live in a very dynamic world, it is not like the old times where muscles had high importance, now the brain matters more and more. Piumini Danesi is designed exactly for this – to relax the brain from all daily routines, to provide comfortable sleep, and total relaxation.

There are recent studies of how better sleep helps improve concentration, and here we have the chess link. The board game of chess is a complex process of study, brain development, and performance. Piumini Danesi helps in this last element by boosting two important element of the performance – mental strength and concentration.

Of course it is applicable for any profession, for any person having trouble finding comfort at night. But with chess and the large variety and social groups, we have one of the best examples. Choosing the right duvet according to your age, with the ultimate selection of goose down clusters contained in the highest quality of cotton related to your room temperature and region is the first right step.

Many player have trouble sleeping before games?

This is something common for the chess world, you change your bed every time you travel to a different tournament. You change your time zone, have jet lag, consume different dinner, or even have different humidity in the given climate zone. Carrying the Piumini Danese pillow, or even the simpler voyager pillow, can be the key to eliminating these problems. Changing the habitat is disturbing and such simple moves can help.
