Tempurpedic

From time to time, we feature extra-ordinary things that people do with a regular mattress and other bedding accessories and this one is another example.

William Hundley, a photographer from Minnesota is a different kind of visual artist who is able to create something out of ordinary bed sheets.

Supported by four cables on each of the corner which goes up to the ceiling, this floating bed is securely in place and doesn’t swing or move at all.

Contact the Bernstein Architecture Showroom for information on installation and pricing.

It’s described as nothing else but a “simple” bed frame. Designed by Formstell, the woodwork for this floating bed is of beech, maple, oak, American cherry or American walnut.

An optional headboard may be installed along with it.

Box spring mattress not required.

I’ve been seeing more and more of floating bed designs lately, is this the new trend in bedding furniture? Beds that seem to defy physics or gravity?

Designer Andrea Lucatello (Italy) uses the finest materials for this bed, mostly made of fine leather. It aims to bring in a extra-ordinarily contemporary feel to any bedroom. You can select from four color types (black, brown, ivory and cream) in any of the three sizes (Queen, European King and Double).

The bed retails for almost $5,500, mattress not included (but you can get your mattress here and here!)

The Floating Bed is like a pendulum clock. The gentle rocking will not be a bother  but instead, actually provides this pleasant feeling of motion. Why the bed is suspended is necessary for sleep. As the bed rocks back and forth , it allows a person to get some sleep faster and better.

This particular Floating Bed comes with a memory foam mattress.

A combination of both bed and hammock, the Floating Bed brings the following benefits, as outlined in their website:

It can be hung in certain locations that would be impossible for a traditional hammock.
