Beam Bed: Sleeping Encounters of the Third Kind

July 22nd, 2008 by AndrewD in Conceptual Gadgets, Home Gadgets

While I’m convinced that the universe is far too large of a place to not have tons of other living beings, I think that some of the alien abductions we hear about are nothing more than then result of an over-active imagination and/or dreaming. The dreaded Greys have become a household term because of pop culture. And more often than not, it’s the Greys who are doing the abduction. Coincidence?

And while you might not experience an abduction without a imagination gone wild, you can still feel like your sleeping experience is non-terrestrial. The Beam Bed is designed to shoot out an array of light beams from under your sleeping surface. It makes your bed resemble a UFO more closely than a comfortable place to rest your head.

Designed by Ewan Robertson for Lagostudio, this lacquered wood crafted Beam Bed emits a steady glow from the central base of the frame which is divided into beams thanks to borders set along the bed frame. What results is a beautiful light display which turns your boring bedroom into something that resembles an alien landing deck.

The Sun inspired design is both calming and unsettling at the same time. It might take some getting used to, but it’s a truly unique way for changing the entire landscape of your bedroom. No information yet on where or when we can see such a product for sale, but we think a lot of you might be interested.

@Ele: My advice would be to contact the designer. We’re pretty sure there’s no retail version available quite yet.
