It’s only natural for a net that can also be found on a catamaran to be gaining popularity. But it’s not just a matter of fashion and hype. The living net has rational assets and advantages recognized by interior designers as well as individuals. Feelnets, your specialist in custom-made nets, tells you more about it…
The Living Net, as Playful as it is Aesthetic
Whether in giant hammock or railing mode, the living net is highly appreciated for its decorative qualities. Its material, which seems light and fine, its mesh work, and its great transparency integrate perfectly with all interiors, whether modern and design-oriented or more classic and traditional.
But it’s often the playful side that’s highlighted. The living net has the magical power to surf on many nostalgic memories, linked to our childhood, holidays, moments of relaxation. Who hasn’t dreamed of a giant hammock? And when you walk on it, the sensation of floating is as pleasant as it is impressive.
Strength to Withstand any Test… Even that of Children

ATTENTION: it’s important to emphasize that the living net is not a trampoline. This cordage is not elastic, so it doesn’t offer a bouncing sensation. You should never jump on a living net!
That being said, living nets are extremely resistant, able to support more than 240kg/m². Children can therefore play on them for as long as they want without ever taking any risk.
As explained in our Feelnets guide to choosing the right living net, safety is our priority and our custom-made nets can easily support the weight of several people at once. Even better, our nets with 30×30 mesh are perfect for babies’ feet, which won’t pass through and should not let children’s toys pass through either.
An Easy-To-Install Living Net
It is entirely possible to install your custom-made net yourself (but with two people, it’s much easier). The only condition for this: the frame must already be in place and it is necessary to know how to place aligned fixings all around the perimeter, every 150mm.
Feelnets explains everything in this article on installing a mezzanine net, also offers fixings for wood and concrete, and sends you installation instructions with your custom-made net to guide you step by step.
However, if you wish, Feelnets can also recommend partners (carpenters, roofers, or other craftsmen) who will know how to create your frame and install your custom-made net.
The Living Net, Ideal for Small Spaces
The living net allows for a real space gain without increasing the living area. And this can be very interesting when your living space is already reduced. A small area with a high ceiling can, for example, be divided in two with a living net mezzanine.
It is also popular in a whole new form of housing, very fashionable in recent years: the tiny house. Being able to be made to measure, as we offer at Feelnets, living nets can be used as railings, mezzanines or walkway nets, allowing these very small houses to lose nothing in space or light.
Light, Always more Light!

Another great advantage of living nets is their natural transparency. Unlike a wooden partition or a concrete wall, the living net will naturally let light pass through, while being able to support the weight of human beings and serve, for example, as a walkway between two rooms on a floor.
