Incorporating daybeds in living rooms is not as common as it should be. A cross between a chaise, a sofa and a bed, they’re the ultimate, multifunctional furniture piece — perfect for providing an extra perch during social gatherings, a spot for an afternoon snooze, and they can even be moved around the home if you choose a light, freestanding design.
If you have the space, a modern daybed is always a wise investment. It can complement other seating arrangements in an open-plan room without overcrowding it, and coming in all kinds of guises — from slender freestanding designs to more substantial built-in styles — it can even add a stunning sculptural element to the space.
