The ‘Mile High Bed’, the latest design from the boys from MotoArt, is, “a prime example of how you can give wings to your desires and take off to the land of fantasies,” says The Design Blog. The bed has plenty of lounging space, measuring 11’ x 7’6”. The [headboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-purifying-headboard) is an inner flap from a C-130 military cargo jet and the side rails are DC-9 rear stabilizers.
