Although it may not quote capture the true feeling of sleeping ‘under starry skies above’, the bed certainly does have its advantages. As well as a firmament of LED lights that replicate the cosmos, the bed’s canopy also features an audio system so that you can drift off to the sounds of your favourite music; there’s also a built-in alarm clock and even an ‘aromatic dispenser’ for the ultimate sensory experience.
