The Pause Bed with Built-In iPod Dock

New Zealand-based Design Mobel has designed a multi-tasking bed with a slick iPod dock and Bose sound-system built right in. The Pause Bed was conceived while pondering the notion of "rest," both when awake and asleep, considering how we choose to create our own personal space to rest and relax in. The result aims to challenge conventional notions of the bedroom and incorporates functionality that allows mood to guide both quiet time and play time.
Design Mobel's repertoire includes mattresses and other bedroom furniture, as well as latex pillows, which we recently featured here.
They also have a longstanding policy of planting a tree for every bed and furniture suite sold, which has resulted in the planting of more than 40,000 trees. Design Mobel is also recognized by the international environmental certification ISO 14001 for their sustainable business practices and the use of sustainable materials. Currently, their furniture is only available in Australia and New Zealand. ::Design Mobel via ::DigitalReviews.net
