Vividus Bed

Filed under: Decor

Assuming that you get about eight hours of sleep a day, you are going to spend 1/3 of your life in bed. If you live to be eighty, that will add up to 233,600 hours - and we're not counting non-sleep time spent in bed. With that much time spent in it, it is worth it to spring for something that will really set you up for a good night's sleep. The Vividus is a high-end bed that doesn't justify its $50,000+ price tag (increasing to $59,750 in April) on looks alone. The Swedish-designed bed from Hastens is made "from latex, flax, memory foam, silk, cashmere, lambswool and hand-tufted horse hair," all used specifically to enhance comfort and the sleep experience. Each bed is handmade, and not even a dozen have been sold since the beds launched in July.
