The Indoor Hammock Idea

The Indoor Hammock Idea

Posted on September 24, 2021


As we get further into winter, our minds and bodies are drawn to the warm comforts of the indoors. And for those with a passion for home furnishings and innovative use of space, perhaps it’s time to put up a hammock. In the lounge. Yes, we know – hammocks and the outdoors are virtually synonymous. But actually, a well-placed hammock in your home is superbly inviting, especially if the weather outside is anything but.

Hammocks hung inside are nothing short of spectacular if you happen to have high ceilings and beams from which to suspend them. But using a hammock stand can be a more flexible option, meaning you can place your hammock in any room where there is sufficient space. The big variety of colours, designs, and flourishes make placing hammocks indoors not only a noteworthy styling centrepiece, but a supremely comfortable place to snuggle into and while away some time on the iPad or read a magazine, unwinding holiday-style.

And there’s also the practical aspect of being able to use your hammock as a day bed for a quick snooze or as a comfy guest bed with a surprise element – without the hoo-ha of lugging about mattresses and a mass of bedding. Any way you do it, it’s good to know that there is no need to retire the use of your favorite hammock just because it’s cold. Keep yours rocking indoors this winter.

HAMMOCK DESIGN IDEAS FOR INDOORS

Hammocks are fantastic. You can use it to unwind, nap, read, or hang out. There isn't a better option. It's a bed, a sofa, and a reclining chair all in one. It also gives the house a summery vibe. Some of these indoor hammock designs took inspiration from resorts. And what better way to fight the winter blues than by bringing a little bit of summer back into your life?

Hammocks with Stripes

Striped linen hammocks have a very summery feel to them. They're bright and cheerful, and they'd look excellent in a neutral setting. They'll also bring back memories of the sea and sun. It leaves you with nothing to do but lie down and relax with an alcohol-free margarita while your heating sources are turned on.

You may hang them wherever, but if you want to transport them to summer instantly, the living room is the best option, as it is where we spend the most time. It could also be a kitchen or a bedroom. If you're planning to spend the winter in a hammock, you may want to hang more than one. As a result, everyone in the house gets a taste of summer.

Knitted Hammocks

Knitted hammocks exude a lovely atmosphere. They can be both summery and neutral in appearance. You can also hang them solely for the sake of decoration. They look fantastic in neutral color schemes. What a wonderful addition to a nursery this would be.

Knitted hammocks can also have a wintery appearance. And these can be an excellent compromise between a winter and a summer setting. In your hammock, you may stay comfy and toasty while yet feeling picturesque and summery. They'll also work well in modern rustic settings.

Suspended Net Hammocks

Net hammocks and beds suspended from the ceiling aren't just for youngsters. This new architectural concept can be fun for both youngsters and adults while also keeping the space light and airy.

The greatest spot to create a suspended hammock is in a loft. Even if you remove some air from a vaulted ceiling, it will still appear lovely. However, you will have access to all of the space above the hammock, allowing you to not only lie down but even sit if desired.

Boho-Inspired Hammocks

You can use a bohemian hammock in practically any setting. It immediately gives the space a romantic, free-spirited vibe, perfect for summer-themed decor.

The most popular hue is cream, but teal or turquoise will make you feel as though you're floating in the ocean or sea. It will also work well as a neutral interior accent. Do you want to know where the best place to put a swinging bed is? Work from home. You may be able to take power naps to become more productive and effective, in addition to taking much-needed breaks from lengthy sitting.

Light Fabric Hammocks

Light summer textiles like cotton and linen are the finest alternatives for summer-spirited hammocks. They're both breathable and light. It will appear practically invisible if you don't keep a pillow inside it. They're also appealing because they come in various designs, textures, and colors.

Unique Hammocks

There are hammocks that are more decorative than others, while some are unique and extraordinary. Take, for example, huge soft hanging hammock-style mattresses. It's the perfect accent to a child's room or a reading nook, and it's unlike anything you've seen before.

GREAT INDOOR SPOTS IN YOUR HOME FOR A HAMMOCK

Bedroom

A hammock in a bedroom may appear to be a waste of space, but if you share an apartment with someone, that's where you'd want some privacy while relaxing and fantasizing about summer. Some people use a hammock as a chair instead of a suspended bed by anchoring it to a wooden pole, which reduces the hammock's length. This solution can work just as well (if not better).

You can use a hammock as a decorative item. Usually, people put a coffee table and a chair in an inconvenient area, but you might buy a hammock if you want something different. A colorful hammock is a welcome addition that may coordinate with your drapes.

Living Room

You can also use a hammock to replace a boring old coffee table and an armchair in a living room. You can use it as a reading corner or even replace your sofa if you don't have a lot of visitors. It is a fantastic way to save money, particularly for students and young families. Why spend money on a sofa when you can relax in a hammock with your favorite person and rock gently side to side?

Reading Area/Library

The home library or study is one of the ideal places for a hammock reading nook. It's comfortable, and you have everything you need at your fingertips.

Terrace

Although covered terraces, patios, and balconies are technically outdoors, you may easily conceive of them as indoor/outdoor areas because they have a close transition between interiors and outdoors. And, while you won't be able to use them in the winter, if you live in a warm environment or can winterize them, they have the potential to become excellent lounge places.

The greatest places to hang hammocks are on closed balconies. A hideaway like this can be all you've ever wanted in a frigid climate. With the use of some plants or a sun lamp that is incandescent, it will undoubtedly remind you of summer.

Sun Room

A sunroom is another method to have a sunny moment in the middle of the winter when you need a little pick-me-up. It could be a screened porch, a glazed kitchen extension, or any other space that has an indoor/outdoor feel. Place your tiny hideaway there and watch as the winter passes you by.

You can do a lot more to keep the summer theme alive. The simplest design approach would be to use bright summertime hues. However, you can add some natural wood, flora, and wall art to assist you replicate that beautiful enjoyment mood.

INSTALLING AN INDOOR HAMMOCK

Indoor hammock idea

A hammock's installation is crucial, as it might result in significant injury. Follow the steps below when making an indoor hammock to avoid any unwanted results.

Find The Perfect Spot

Installing a hammock outside is more convenient than indoors because there is no space constraint. But it would help if you considered the hammock's length and the availability of vacant space in the chosen location while using an interior hammock. It must provide the hammock with enough room to move around freely. If there isn't enough room, the person relaxing in it may wind up on the ground, or you may lose the hammock's intended impact. To avoid such scenarios, it's vital to choose the correct location.

Installation Steps

  • Hanging a hammock from a wood stud rather than a metal stud is crucial. The hammock's weight is too much for drywall or plaster to bear. Using a stud finder, locate a wood stud. The stud finder flashes various lights to help you find a stud, metal, or wiring.
  • When you find a wood stud, please note it with a pen or pencil. If you don't look for the stud at the exact height, you want to hang your hammock. You'll end up turning it too high or too low. To identify a wood stud, drill a hole with a smaller drill machine and inspect the shredded particles. If the particles are made of wood, go to the next step. If they are made of metal, you will need to drill a new hole in a different position. It's unlikely to happen because you have the stud finder, but it's always a good idea to double-check prior to moving on to the next level.
  • Let's move on to the next stage, presuming you understand the concept. Using an eye-bolt and a drill machine, measure the length of the part of the eye-bolt. It will enter the wall and mark it on the drill machine. For marking, align the pointed end of the drill machine and the eye-bolt parallel to each other.
  • Drill a hole up to the mark. Insert the eye-bolt into the hole and tighten it with your hand first, then with a screwdriver to ensure it is secure. If you're going to hang a 2-hook hammock, drill a hole in the opposite end of the hammock in the same way.
  • To make the hanging safer, place the hammock hook into the eye-bolt. Make a loop in the eye-bolt with a long rope and insert the hammock hook into the loop. Pass the other end of the rope via the eye-bolt, then through the hammock hook. Tie a knot and draw the cord tight to tighten the knot after the last pass of the string through. Rep the procedure as needed to correct the problem. Finish by tying the other end in the same manner.
