Outdoor Canopy Beds

New Zealand-based firm Design Mobel knows its outdoor lounging gear!

The contemporary Float outdoor canopy bed hails from the firm’s annual “challenging how we sleep” project, which calls on innovative New Zealand designers to redefine the concept of the bed. Designer David Trubridge created the fun, functional and fit design for Float. “I forgot about beds and tried to think about sleep,” he says. “I asked lots of people what ‘sleep’ meant to them. Invariably the answers contained words like ‘floating,’ ‘cozy,’ ‘romantic,’ ‘rocking,’ ‘trusting.’
