9 Ways To Embrace a Little R&R

Today is National Relaxation Day, and that’s a cause we can get behind! So we’ve rounded up some great products for lounging, lollygagging or lying about.


1. Hang around
The Taj Collection of quilted freestanding hammocks from Lujo is made from kwila hardwood constructed in a striking, splayed form.


2. Give the kids a break
The Polar Bear Faux-Fur Hang-A-Round chair from Pottery Barn Teen features foldable legs for easy storage.


3. Make a splash
The Double Lilo pool float from Oliver James — seen here in colors “Shore Regatta” and “Shore Linen” — is roomy enough for two.


4. Put your feet up
Repos and Grand Repos chairs from Vitra adjust from an upright position to a reclined angle. The ottoman is part of the collection. (Find it in New Jersey at Modclair in Montclair.)


5. Pause and refresh
The Barlow Tyrie Layout Collection of deep seating comprises various seat, back and arm components that can be mixed and matched to create intimate or grand seating groups.  (Find it in New Jersey at The Wickery in Toms River, Garden Cottage in Fairfield and Morristown or Ski Barn in Paramus.)


6. Live large
The Marnie sofa from Maker & Son is soft and spacious, suitable for all your napping needs.


7. Relax and renew
The Aiko Lounger from Mamagreen features a frame made from upcycled teak material.


8. Get into the swing of things

9. Don’t forget your pet!
Our furry friends need space to unwind too. The Buffalo Check Ortho Lounger from Harry Barker features chipped memory foam on the bottom and eco-polyfill along the back and side walls.
