The Fanciest and Most Comfortable Beds Fit for a King (or Queen)
There's no denying the power of a good night's rest.
Getting sufficient sleep ensures that you awaken feeling fully charged and ready to face the next day. It also strengthens your immune system — which is particularly pertinent especially in these pandemic times. Recent studies have even discovered that deep sleep — the third stage in the sleep cycle where cells and tissues are being repaired — may reduce one's risk of Alzheimer's disease.
Naturally, having a conducive environment is instrumental to getting your full eight hours of sweet slumber. While you may not be able to completely block out the sounds of your neighbours next door or the traffic outside, investing in a comfortable, ergonomic bed definitely makes a great starting point.
Here are the best and fanciest beds that'll help you snooze better.
Ocean bed by Savoir Beds

With a storied legacy that dates back to 1905 — when it created cushy beds for London's iconic Savoy Hotel — Savoir Beds can certainly be counted on to help you wind down after a long day. Its stunning Ocean bed, created in collaboration with designer Bill Amberg, is perched on a sturdy brass frame cloaked in digitally printed leather that's inspired by sun rays bouncing off waves. The head and foot-boards are sheathed in the same leather and embellished with curved brass details in a satin finish.
The bed's legs are customisable with material options including hardwood, chrome and hand-carved rosewood. It can be paired with one's choice of Savoir mattress, such as the No.3 — which is hand-stitched and filled with horsetail hair, cotton and wool.
Grand Vividus by Hästens and Ferris Rafauli

Luxury bed manufacturer Hästens made headlines earlier this year when it joined forces with famed designer Ferris Rafauli to create the Grand Vividus, an ultra-lavish bed entirely hand-built and stitched by craftsmen in its Sweden facility. The bed frame, which resembles a massive luggage case, is wrapped in shagreen leather and adorned with a golden brass nameplate and studs, while its base is upholstered in nubuck leather with a debossed checked pattern. Its accompanying plush mattress is no less extravagant — it's filled with horsehair, wool and cotton, and decorated with Hästens' horse insignias.
Hip hop musician Drake was first in line to own this coveted bed, which currently has a waitlist.
Hi-Bed by Hi-Interiors

Recent years have seen the growing popularity of smart homes and devices. Italian design company Hi-Interiors has taken this a step further by launching Hi-Bed, a smart bed that comes with all the bells and whistles such as an adjustable base, reading lights, built-in speakers, an alarm system that will wake you up just the way you like it (to the soothing strains of Enya's Orinoco Flow, or the rousing chorus of Toto's Africa, perhaps?), and a 4k projector and retractable screen — so you can binge-watch The Crown without moving an inch.
The bed can be paired with an app, which enables you to programme it with even more sophisticated features such as an anti-snoring function, where the bed automatically adjusts your sleeping position or lifts your head to help you stop. Keen on getting your hands on one? Join the waiting list here.
Ergonomic Slatted Bed Base by Okooko

A good bed base is, well, the bedrock of a restful night's sleep. Go for Okooko's Ergonomic Slatted Bed Base, which is crafted from FSC-certified beech wood and promises enhanced lumbar support. Its shoulder zone, for instance, boasts softer suspension and contouring slats for greater comfort. The bed base's lumbar and hip areas are customisable via sliders, so you can tailor them to your favoured sleeping positions and comfort levels. Each half of the bed can be adjusted differently, which makes it ideal for couples with different preferences.
The brand also offers a motorised version of the bed base powered by a quiet motor that, with the touch of a button, can transform the bed into a cushy recliner equipped with adjustable sections. Perfect for all your late night reading sessions. The bed base doesn't come with a mattress, but you can easily add one on here.

These Luxurious Bed Sheets Will Enhance Your Beauty Sleep
Our bed sheets have been getting more action than ever during this pandemic.
With many of us still working from our abode, our beds have transformed into makeshift home offices, as well as easily provided opportunities for the occasional lunch break power nap. And if you spent the lockdown periods in quarantine with a partner, you probably got even more mileage out of your sheets.
Which means it’s time to consider investing a little more in our sleeping cocoons. If your existing bedding is too dull and run-of-the-mill for you, consider these luxurious bed sheets that are the epitome of style and substance.

Virgil Abloh-designed bedding? Talk about a must-have for hypebeasts. Unveiled early this month as part of its latest homeware collection, streetwear darling Off-White's bed sets come in options of beige-orange linen and grey flannel. Each comes with a fitted bed sheet embroidered with the Off-White lettering logo, a duvet cover tagged with the "Home" label, and two pillow cases adorned with the brand's iconic arrow motif.

For an eco-friendly option, consider Okooko's Heveya sheets, which are crafted in 100 percent organic bamboo lyocell. The sheets are particularly soft and breathable, with a smooth and feathery texture that resembles silk. Their bamboo fibre material is anti-microbial and hypoallergenic — perfect for those with sensitive skin and nose — and even wicks away moisture, so you can be assured of a comfortable night's sleep. It's also equipped with temperature-regulating qualities that will keep you cool during the summer, and warm and cosy in cold weather.
These sheets are pretty low-maintenance too — simply put them through a cold gentle cycle machine wash, and they'll revert back to their original soft texture after drying.
