Bean bags and cushions feature in ‘retro’ club

Bean bags and cushions feature in 'retro' clubRevellers at one Indian bar have the chance to chill out on comfy bean bag chairs and luxurious cushions.

An Indian Express article notes that the recently-opened Vertigo bar in Hotel Himani offers “a retro club feel” and contains a number of cushions and low-level seating to help give the impression that it is somewhere cosy for people to relax.

“We didn’t want to cramp up space and intentionally gave it an open feel,” owner Ankit Gupta explains.

Corona and Heineken are among the beverage brands that can be purchased at the bar which is targeted specifically at young people and those on a budget.

“There are many fine dining restaurants and clubs in the city but most are not youth centric and budget-friendly. The music will range from pop to jazz to trance and R&B over the weekends,” he tells the publication.

But this is not the only place offering young people a place to chill out bean bag chairs. Reuters recently noted that at this year’s The Big Chill and Latitude festival, Boutique Babysitting will run a childcare service allowing kids the chance to chill on children’s bean bag chairs, while their parents enjoy some live music.

Dog bed helps canine manage ailments

Dog bed helps canine manage ailments Have you thought about purchasing a dog bed for your four-legged friend? It appears the bed of one adopted canine in Chicago is helping it to manage with its medical problems.

The Daily Herald notes that since being adopted by Susan Lillis, Ella receives lots of love and attention from her new owner and goes on regular walks.

“This is a dog they thought wasn’t adoptable. She’s the gentlest, sweetest, happiest dog. There’s no reason why she shouldn’t have had this love years ago,” Ms Lillis claims.

And this appears to extend to seating, as the publication notes Ella has a special orthopaedic dog bed to help her arthritis.

However, Ella’s not the only dog to benefit from such cosy seating. Actress Sharron Matthews recently told Metro Canada that she has a pair of “huge” dog beds in the back of her car for when she takes her pair of pups out on the road.

Those dog-owners looking to get some comfortable furniture for themselves may also want to invest in a bean bag cube or cotton bean bag sofas.
