Why is it adorable? Because it's shaped like three giant forest owls.

It was designed and constructed by contemporary art producer Zébra3, a project commissioned by artist-architect collective Bruit de Frigoas part of their Refuges périurbains(“peri-urban shelters”) campaign.

The beds are round to resemble nests, and are in the heads of the owls to allow campers to observe "the stars, the moon, the reflections of the river in darkness."
Zébra3 designer Candice Petrillo further explained the inspiration behind the design by saying, "The idea of the birds came to me very quickly. After the last extension of the commercial area, I saw migrants swirling around in the sky, looking for the old dried wetland. Animal nod and the contour of the object are in turn a tribute to the sculptor François Pompon and François-Xavier Lalanne."
