You can now spend a night overlooking London in a transformed London eye capsule. A pod in the famous ferris wheel has been converted into a tiny rainforest themed bedroom with a killer view. The chic bedroom is covered top to bottom with greenery including live plants, a tropical green printed ceiling, and a hanging birdcage. The decorations remain elaborate to balance the minimal furnishings, which include a bed and a dresser.

To make this [sky high sleepover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carrenight) possible, TripAdvisor teamed up with [Wayfair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-the-polka-dots-roam) to host a competition called 'Eye Spy a Home in the Sky' in which people entered to win a night in the luxurious pod that provides a 360 degree panorama of the gorgeous city and its famous landmarks. By transforming into a luxurious bedroom, the London eye capsule combines a popular tourist attraction with [luxury and compact urban living](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quadrapol-capucine), making for a unique experience for both the city's locals, and visitors.
