of the most unusual beds that you've never seen before. Book bed, this bed was
designed by a Yusuke Suzuki to combat the lack of space often found in urban apartment blocks in Japan, shaped like a large book, it
unfolds to reveal a mattress and pillows from what would
be considered the books pages that's one way of making
stories come to life. LA Montana Rusa, this bed from
Cuban furniture designers, Los Carpinteros translates
to rollercoaster, which considering its
appearance is totally apt. Pink cushions cover the bed
frame as it moves up and down and curves back on itself in
an imitation of popular rights. But if you're thinking that
this bed isn't exactly practical that's okay, it was actually designed to be a piece of furniture artwork and it was exhibited at a
gallery in New York in 2008. Cinema bed, Polish company iNyx markets this as the world's most advanced bed and it's easy to see why it

time in their garden during the summer months
but this can often be ruined by pesky bugs such as mosquitoes. This hammock bed by Hammacher Schlemmer is the ideal solution. In fact, their website

If there's one household chore that's almost universally hated, it's making your bed in the morning. Enter the self making bed by smart dovet. It utilizes an inflatable sheet which you can add to your
existing dovet cover. This sheet is attached to an air pump which inflates and returns your dovet to its initial straight
and smooth position. Flottua bed, this bed makes
use of a visual illusion to make it appear as if it's levitating, it's the brain child of Danielle Lago, an Italian designer who
developed it in 2004. By attaching the bed to
the wall and making use of one under bed beam which
can be concealed by lights, the bed gives off the full impression it's floating above the ground. Floating hammock bed, this
isn't a hammock or a bed. It's a bit of both known

to provide for better sleep and health benefits all through
its gentle rocking motion. The bed features a memory foam mattress and an entirely flat surface to sleep on to make you feel like you're
floating through the air. Giant birds nest bed. This bed is every bit as
strange as its name suggests. It's a giant size
replica of a bird's nest. It comes in three different
sizes and the biggest one is advertised with space
for up to 16 occupants. You'll stretch out on its
comfortable egg cushions which are designed to create
ergonomic seating positions. A similar concept was also
created by two Israeli designers and exhibited at a gallery in 2008. Feel Seating System Deluxe. This product boasts customers
such as Google, EA and L'Oreal with demand apparently being
so high that it's listed as out of stock on their website. Comprising of 120 soft foam balls, it's big enough to

of space to sink in and float away completely. Ying and yang bed, based on the
Chinese yin and yang symbol, this bunk bed has space for two people. It was created by Italian
designer, Alessio Papa and would be ideal for couples
who want to share a bedroom but maintain their own personal space. That being said, it's wooden frame doesn't look totally
comfortable and asleep on. Hamburger bed, food and
sleep are probably two of humanity's favorite things. So it was only a matter of time before someone combined the two, the hamburger bed is
the work of Kayla Cromer who purchased the 70
snails circular mattress and created the rest herself. After Kayla sold the bed in 2009, it made its way under the
hands of multiple new owners from eBay before finally
ending up on display at the Hamburger Museum a year later. Vertical bed, we don't usually
do think of the process of sleeping as being vertical
but Brazilian designer, Ernesto Neto proposed
this idea to change that. His bed in cases sleepers and cushions much like being eaten
by a giant marshmallow. This ensures that their body is supported in an upright position while sleeping. Geometric bed, if you thought

by celebrities Gigi Hadid and Gwenyth Paltrow. Letto Zip, designed by an Italian company, Florida Furniture, this is
another bed which allows you to ditch those bed making chores. It appeals to our frustration
towards messy sheets by promising that we
can simply zip them up into a straight tidy bed,
that's the beauty of it. You'll find zippers along
the entire length of the bed where you can attach a
fully removable cover which also doubles as an extra blanket. Magnetic floating bed,
this is no illusion, the sped floats for real, the power of opposing
industrial strength magnets is what gives this bed it's
magical floating quality but what's really
impressive is that this bed can hold up to 900 kilograms of weight. There is another smaller
version of the bed which can safely wear
80 kilograms weight too. BedBunker. In the past, people
kept their money hidden under their mattresses for safekeeping. BedBunker goes one step further than this by inserting a 10-gauge steel
strong box into a bed frame and if that wasn't enough
to assuage your fears, the steel is a quarter inch thick. So you really can rest assured
that your valuables are safe. Sonic bed. Designed by Kaffe Matthews, this is more of a portable music venue than a piece of bedroom furniture. That being said, it comes

software system built in. Phat knits, if you are a
