When not fighting wind and rain over top the tent, the two rain fly sheets detach to create alternative configurations. Qaou uses one rain fly panel to cover the tent itself and a second as an awning around the entry way.
The key to its flexibility is the two-piece rain fly used in place of the typical single-piece fly.
But it can fold, stretch, zip, string and stake into much more than just that. In basic tent mode, the Beluga looks like a cookie-cutter dome tent that you'd see anywhere from a discount sporting goods store to a high-end outdoor gear boutique. What really impresses about the Beluga, though, is Qaou's signature 6-in-1 versatility, first launched on an evolving tent line that got its start in 2017. Each tent repurposes 125 plastic bottles, which is certainly nice for those looking to go a little greener while overnighting in nature. Qaou launched a Kickstarter campaign this week to promote the eco-friendly design of its new two-person Beluga, which uses a waterproof fabric based on recycled plastic. The Beluga treats campers to everything from Saturday afternoon couples' hangs to full-on off-grid camper communes. Instead of stopping at two or three functions, this Swiss Army-like tent performs six, and that's not even counting its ability to connect with other Belugas and create multi-person super-tents. But we still weren't prepared for the pure multifunctional chaos presented in the Beluga from French company Qaou. We've seen ground tents that jump up and hang out in trees, inflatable tents that double as rafts, and hammock shelters that drape over your shoulders and work as rain gear.
