Just because summer is coming to an end doesn’t mean you have to say goodbye to your favorite lounger. Take a cue from Kendall Jenner and fill the hammock-sized hole in your heart (and living room) with an indoor hanging hammock or hammock chair. And before you dismiss the swinging chair as “too boho,” know that they can totally work in minimal space. Plus, just imagine how sitting in one will feel like an instant vacay. Whether you choose to set up a swing in your bedroom or hang a hammock in your breakfast nook Kardashian-style, here are 16 indoor hammocks to keep those chill vacay vibes going all year long.

Living Large: Not only is this the perfect place to rest your feet with a magazine, but this hammock is set up right outside the kitchen, so you can swing for a minute while enjoying your morning cup of joe.
