Fancy a nap? Curl up in the portable 'womb chair'!

'Hush' can be set up virtually anywhere, giving you break from life's stresses - it's made from recycled materials too, so you can relax in an envirnonmentally friendly manner.

She explains on her website that 'Soaring property prices and lack of available space are causing more and more people to seek alternatives to owning their own home in the city.

'For example sharing your room with your partner, brother or friend. It is essential to continue to develop new ways of allowing people to comfortably co-exist in these increasingly densely populated environments.

Made from 100 per cent wool felt, with cushions stuffed with recycled wool fibers, HUSH was recently named one of the popular TV show's 'Green Heroes'.

Set up one in your office or at home and I reckon there'd be a queue lining up to sample the delights of your womb chair - you'd probably still never get any peace!
