Tired of ‘authentic’ camping experiences (often marred by mud and rain), festival-goers are increasingly choosing to glamp instead. Providing portable, stackable rooms fashioned from converted shipping containers, Snoozebox is a premium service putting people at the heart of the action.

Just 19% of Brits are planning on packing their suitcases and heading abroad for two weeks in 2015, yet almost half have booked four short trips scattered throughout the year. Why are people ditching the two-week trip of sun, sea and sand in favour of staycations and city breaks?

The great outdoors is having a moment. The outdoor apparel industry made $4 billion in 2014. But with more people living in cities than ever before, what it means to be ‘outdoorsy’ is changing. A new consumer has emerged; the casual camper. But who are they? And how are brands engaging them?

Created by French designer Stephane Dumas, these $700 per night recycled plastic inflatable bubble pods let you experience the great outdoors without getting dirty, and they offer lucky guests a clear, unobstructed view of the night sky.
