The Cocoon Beach takes the idea of [living in a bubble](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-introvert-chair) to a very relaxing level. While some may construe that idea as negative, it can only be interpreted as positive in this situation. By blocking out real life for a little while, people are able to indulge in a restfulness that could be considered second to none. Of course, the Cocoon Beach doesn't block out the important bits, such as its gorgeous surroundings.

Although clearly meant for the beach, the Cocoon Beach could easily be placed by the pool or even in a pastured landscape. It takes on a [spherical shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orbit-outdoor-furniture), hence the bubble comparison. It is made out of a [waterproof straw](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-shibumi-shade) and synthetic wire with a high density T6 aluminum framework.
