Hovering bed in the interior: types, shapes, design, backlit options

Types of designs of beds with soaring effect

Hovering furniture freezes in the air thanks to specific mounting methods.

• On one leg. A hovering bed can only have one support in the center of the base. Decorative lighting distracts attention from the leg, which is already almost invisible because of its location. Sometimes rays diverge from the central support, which allow you to evenly distribute the weight. With this mount, the product can withstand a load of up to 300 kilograms.
• On the magnets. The author of the floating furniture on the magnets is the Dutch architect Janjaap Ruijssenaars. The designer's idea is based on the principle of magnetic levitation. Magnets are mounted in the frame of the product and on the floor, which hold it in the air. The soaring sleeping bed remains in place thanks to four cables. A bed with magnets is capable of supporting up to 600 kilograms of weight. It is not suitable for people with pacemakers due to the magnetic field.
• On a metal frame. The main advantage of the metal frame is the reliability of the fasteners. The metal frame must be powder coated against corrosion. Typically, the metal frame is closed with a body made of MDF, solid wood.
• Suspended from the ceiling. The bed can be fixed to the ceiling with strong ropes. This design has increased security requirements. For a children's room, it is recommended to use steel cables instead of rope ropes.
• Attached to the wall. The headboard attached to the wall will give the structure additional stability.

“Flying” furniture looks weightless, as if defying gravity.

Pros and cons of using the interior

Hovering beds have a number of features that you need to know about when choosing.

Shapes of soaring beds

The choice of the shape of the bed depends on the person's personal ideas about comfort.

• Round. A round bed has a larger berth compared to a rectangular one. A round hanging bed can be installed not only against the wall, but also in the corner of the room. In this case, an angular structure for fastening is formed behind the head of the head.
• Rectangular A rectangular bed is set either by the head of the wall or by two sides in the corner of the room. Rectangular shapes are universal for use in rooms of any size.

Backlit bed ideas

Illumination of the base serves to enhance the optical effect of soaring. LED backlighting is placed around the perimeter of the product, less often in the center of the base. Using the controller, you can change the intensity and color of lighting.

The luminous contour of the base masks the supports of the product, diverting attention to itself. In addition, the lighting of furniture makes the room visually spacious and comfortable.

Design options for soaring effect beds

The market offers a large selection of soaring beds of various shapes, colors, stylistic accessories.

With drawers or cabinet

Bedside tables and bedside tables have become an invariable attribute of a comfortable bedroom. Near the soaring bed, bedside furniture suspended on the wall will organically look to enhance the illusion of levitation in the interior.

With soft headboard

The hovering bed itself is laconic, so designers are actively using the headboard to embody their original ideas. The most popular decor option is soft upholstery made of tapestry, leather or textile. Upholstery is carried out in the form of a carriage screed, decorated with rhinestones, photo printing. The role of the head can be performed by a wall with soft three-dimensional panels.

From wood

Solid wood furniture, depending on the decorative processing, can perfectly fit into any interior. Products with a wooden base are lighter than beds made of MDF or chipboard. This is an advantage for hovering furniture, as less weight reduces the load on fixtures and supports.

Double

Levitating bed, thanks to the reliable design of the fasteners, can easily support the weight of two adults. The length of the berth is calculated based on the growth of the one who is higher in the pair plus 10 centimeters.

With lifting gear

Thanks to the lifting mechanism, a storage place appears at the base of the sleeping bed. Unfortunately, this design makes the product heavier and requires additional reinforcement of the supports.

A soaring bed will emphasize the merits of any design direction from classic to eclecticism. Original furniture is suitable for apartments and houses with a non-standard layout. For rooms with open zoning of the space, it is better to choose bedroom sets in the same style with the rest of the furniture. When choosing furniture for a children's room, you should pay attention to the safety of materials and the reliability of assembly and fastening.

Bedroom

In a separate bedroom, soaring furniture will become an interior dominant. The soaring effect combined with multi-level lighting will create a relaxing atmosphere in the room. Since the hovering furniture is large enough, in order to compensate, you can use the space above its head for shelving or cabinets.
