The perfect embodiment of summer; the modern hammock in today’s world is the epitome of leisure, relaxation, and pure, easy living.

Today we celebrate National Hammock day, and the only way to honor this day is to allow yourself to fall into a trance of divine relaxation – preferably in one of these stunning Swiss Bureau approved hammock-esqe designs.

Here’s proof that Dubai really knows how to relax in style:

There’s little comparable to the relaxing sensation felt when lying within the waves of water. The Wave hammock, designed by Erik Nyberg and Gustav Strom and manufactured by Royal Botania is an artful interpretation of such a feeling built with electro-polished stainless steel and two types of perforated fabric.
