Football is not the only reason why you should spend your summer in Brazil, as you can tell by this beach house. Created by designer Sig Bergamin and Murilo Lomas, this summer house located in Trancose has a fresh and unique cosmopolitan look.

“There'll
be nothing but beauty, wealth, pleasure,
With all
things in order and measure.”
Charles Baudelaire, l’invitation au voyage, (in Les Fleurs du mal)

Kee Club
could be the exact embodiment of Charles Baudelaire’s poem from which the lines
above are extracted. This club is indeed a real ‘Invitation to the Voyage’: a
classical European residence with African sculptures and pieces of arts from
the greatest (Pablo Picasso and Anthony Quinn to name but a few), richly
decorated with precious colors and Bauhaus designed 1940’s furnishings.
The two Russian designers Alexey Goryainov and Mikhail Krymov have imagined the Sleepbox, a ‘box’ in which you can relax
and rest in a calm and quiet environment, even if you’re in the middle of a
bustling public place.

An endless connection between two flights? Few hours to spend in an abandoned train station? Sleepbox has been the dream of all
travelers who would like to take a nap without missing their connection.

Sleepbox has everything a tired traveler could wish: comfy
beds with automatic system of change of bed linen, dark blinds, a soundproof
cabin, a closed and safe place to peacefully fall into the arms of Morpheus, a
storage place for luggage, horizontal handle for clothing, and of course, an
integrated alarm clock.

Unlike Capsule Hotels in Japan (cf. picture below, to
be avoided at all cost if you're claustrophobic), Sleepbox is relatively large, all
built in an eco-friendly wood, and has a pure and cozy design.

The first Sleepbox hotel has opened in Moscow in
January 2013, where it is around 50 euros for one night. We can’t wait before they
open these little sleeping boxes in airports, at an hourly cost maybe, we’ll assuredly
be the first clients!

What about you? Would you use the Sleepbox?

photographer Cindy Sherman - mostly reputated for her autoportrait panel - moves

are exploring her heteroclite and colorful countryside home, in which we
can travel from one room to another.
