102511_floating_bed1.jpgWe may be late to the slumber party (we overslept?) but felt it would be remiss not to show off this high tech hovering bed. Designed by Janjaap Ruijssenaars with a price tag of over a $1 million dollars, this is the stuff billionaire dreams are made of/on.

102511_floating_bed2.jpgThis fascinating floating bed was Inspired by Stanley Kubrik's 2001 film, A Space Odyssey. From Universe Architecture in the Netherlands, magnetic forces push the two slabs apart while cables tether the bed in place.
