The bed is the focal point of any bedroom. However, most bedrooms have regular beds that are nothing out of the ordinary. We are not focusing on those today. Each of the beds we’ve listed here is unique, gorgeous, and functional. The designers decided to follow the road less traveled and created masterpieces that will be talked about for years to come. If you’re looking for a bed that will make a style statement, you’ll find it here. Let’s get started.
1. Magnetic Hover Bed
Not too long ago, this bed would have seemed like something out of a movie. Created by Janjaap Ruijssenaars, it has enough magnets that keep it floating several feet above the floor, even though it weighs 1,984 lbs. The bed was designed to challenge gravity; instead of falling down, it falls up. 4 cables tether it to the walls to ensure that it doesn’t float away.

Artist and designer Ernesto Neto has created many great works. The vertical bed is one of his best pieces. While it is actually an art piece and only meant for display, it gives us an idea of how sleeping while standing looks like.

4. Private Cloud Rocking Bed
The first Private Cloud Rocking Bed was created by German designer Manuel Kloker back in 2005. The designer believed that since rocking chairs are very popular, a rocking bed could also become very popular. The Private Cloud Rocking Bed Version 1.2 is more modern-looking and does not have a canopied top. Flexible feet secure the bed in one position when you want it to stop rocking.

7. Tree Bed
Straight out of a fairytale, the tree bed is the brainchild of Shawn Lovell, owner of Shawn Lovell Metalworks. It’s a creative and modern take on the regular four-poster bed. Instead of using wooden posts, the designer used metal to create a bed frame comprised of trees with branches, leaves, and a random bird’s nest. She makes every bed by hand and uses traditional methods as well as modern forging techniques.
