**NapTV** is a new concept that combines a TV and [a Chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-chair) in one design. You can sit on NapTV as a normal chair, but you can also [watch TV](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-television-line) by sliding under it or positioning it towards you. The built-in speakers are bound to give you a good listening experience.

Perfect for watching that boring show which [puts you to sleep](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-collection-1) :)

NapTV is designed by *Sung-kyu Nam* who also came up with the creative **[Sip of Light](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sip-of-light)** lamp design.
