Inflatable pods transform from patio lounges to chairs, pool floats and more

If you like to spend the hot summer months sprawled out on a pool deck, an Italian furniture company called Pigro Felice is about to take your poolside lounging to the next level. With their line of inflatable seating called Modul’Air, you can unfold and reattach every armchair and sofa to transform them into perfect floating pool furniture.

The idea behind Modul’Air is that each piece works as outdoor deck furniture and also floats on water with no hassle to support all your pool-lounging glory. Some pieces work as standalone convertible furniture, like the armchair or sofa that both fold out into floating pool loungers. There are also one-off pieces like a drink cooler, stability trays, floatable hammocks, and pillows.

Pigro Felice’s website also features an interactive platform builder, so you can mix and match the foldable pieces or design your own world of floating furniture to specific pool dimensions. Once you start with the floating base piece, it looks like the possibilities are virtually endless. There are nine colors to choose from in all the Modul’Air pieces, and accessories are all available as add-ons to your purchase.

Full convertible sets cost between $450 and $750, and individual Modul’Air pieces cost mostly within the $100 to $250 range. Some of the accessories are more fun-focused, like magnetic glasses to keep your in-pool libations from floating away or a blow-up seal, because why not? But practical accessories like an underwater anchor to keep your floating palace in place or a pump to blow up each Modul’Air piece without passing out make a whole lot of sense when it comes to building an inflatable empire.

How to reset the Nanoleaf Skylight
The Nanoleaf Skylight lighting up a room various shades of purple.

The Nanoleaf Skylight is a unique piece of hardware. Unlike most Nanoleaf products that are quick to install or easy to move and replace, the Skylight is designed as a permanent fixture in your home. Instead of simply plugging it into an electrical outlet, you'll need to hardwire it onto your ceiling – and once it's in place, you'll want it to stay there for years.

However, like all electronics, it's possible for your Nanoleaf Skylight to start acting up. And since there's no easy way to get the entire unit down from your ceiling, you might be wondering how you can quickly solve the problem. Thankfully, Nanoleaf designed a simple way for you to reset the Nanoleaf Skylight without the need to disassemble the entire setup.
