Hot Stuff - Most Wanted Bean Bag


most wanted bean bag
Don’t think for a second that Ambient Lounge bean bags have anything in common with those you see on the side of the road. Those lumpy potato-shaped items are to the Ambient Lounge brand as plonk is to the finest Saxonburg Private Collection Cabernet Sauvignon 2003. So there. Lets put it this way; do you think those dusty bean bags would grace chill out zones for the likes of Nivea, Red Bull, Nissan and Mini Cooper? Thought not, but we’re told the Ambient Lounge bean bags or to be more precise bean bag loungers have found comfortable homes there as well as at designer clubs, cafes and luxury apartments. So they wont look out of place in your pad will they? Certainly not here at ‘charged’, where out studio lounger sample (designer around the natural seated curve of your body) brought a certain air of elegance and class and dare I even say comfort and chicness (is there such a word? Ed)

There are a number of different shapes and styles in the range, from the simple Zen to the Conversion Lounger, which transforms from a bean chair into a full-body chaise or sun-lounger. They’re available in a wide range of fabrics for indoor and outdoor living. An astonishing 280 litres (or so our resident scientist tells us) of flame retardant polystyrene beads fill out the insides of these loungers, which as the Ambient Lounge website puts it “massages our butts” and “make the bean bags blissful”. So if you are up to playing games, watching DVD’s watching your favourite team take home the cup, or completely consumed in your latest edition of ‘charged’ (they said it not us) and your old armchair no longer does it for you, it could be time to pull up an Ambient Lounge bean bag.

Peter Sung Displays - Thank you for our banners and retail display materials


peter sung
Peter Sung is an entrepreneur and small business owner that not only produces great quality products and service, but is also a fantastic guy. We were so impressed by the stuff that his company did for us in the category
of bean bag retail displays, banners, photo frames, lightboxes etc. that we thought we better give him a good testimonial on our worldwide site. If
you're a business with such needs - especially in Australia - we don't think you would get a more competitive deal than from www.petersung.com. His team come with a creative design background which we found helps greatly.

You will soon see evidence of Pete's help with our retail displays in all our partner retail shops worldwide.

Beijing OLYMPIC GAMES Divide and Unite Ambient Lounge Distributors


Stephanie Rice
THE AMBIENT LOUNGE WORLDWIDE DISTRIBUTORS are all giving each other some friendly banter and competition with each of their nation competing fiercely with each other in the Olympic Games in Beijing. Many of our offices are decked out with bean bags and widescreen LCD TV's, making it hard to concentrate on work with so many exciting competitions on.

Our Australian team are especially excited about the swimming, with Stephanie Rice already taking gold and Libby Trickett and Grant Hackett other famous names expected to do well.

We have a lot of competition from the Dutch, with our distributor in Amsterdam insisting that the sea of Orange will reign supreme in the pool and on the hockey field.

Our UK team already cheered home Nicole Cooke in the Woman’s road race but will be waiting on athletics for their best chance at more gold.

However, the biggest boasting will be done by our Chinese office, not only extremely proud of the wonderful cultural spectacle their nation is putting on for the world, but of their athletes who are dominating so many sports like gymnastics, diving, shooting and badminton. Well, having 1.3 billion people at your disposal sometimes has it’s advantages!

To help Celebrate the Beijing Olympic, for those who read our blog please enter the code : BEIJING10 at checkout and receive a 10% discount on your purchase. Valid until the closing ceremony finishes.

Playstation 3 Nintendo Wii or Xbox - Whatever the console choose Ambient Lounge bean bags for combat comfort


Looking for bean bags that will be awesome for gaming? Well gamers and industry experts alike have voted Ambient Lounge bean bags far and away the most comfortable and supporting bean bags for hours of console combat.

Sony Playstation in New Zealand used Ambient Lounge bean bags recently on their stand at fashion week to help launch their dynamic new high definition Playstation 3 console. Customers were treated to kicking back and playing the brilliant Fifa 08 with high back support and effortless, flexible seating on the Evolution sofas. For those that prefer the more laid back approach, and especially for the car games, the Studio lounger was a hit.

We’ve also had several of the high profile game developers purchase products from us for their gaming rooms ... and our loungers were used extensively at the latest Gaming 'Combo Fest' run by Ars Gaming group. This group of hardcore gamers have 3 day tournaments on a quarterly basis which are a great way to interact with the community and have a lot of fun testing out your skills against the best-of-the best, rather than your inept flatmates!

Gaming guru CJ Mack stated “The Ambient bean bags were absolutely brilliant and helped make it a special experience for all the gamers that came down. Its the practical shape that makes them better for the gamers and nobody said a bad word about them for the whole tournament. We had people in them for hours and hours on end and they raved about them. I expect the concept to grow massively and welcome all friendly gamers to join our fun and social community”.
