CASE-DAYBEDS
love this sofa/daybed!
By: Hopewishprayer, Homeowner (austin, tx)
these arrived extremely well packaged and protected (unlike other furniture pieces i've ordered online). it almost looks like it's floating on top of the metal legs and feels light, yet substantial--firm, yet cozy. king's road ash is a great neutral color and catches the light while pairing well with other mid-century modern classics. when holiday guests arrive, simply pop off the cushions and they are ready to double as beds.
I'm very pleased with the entire experience from choosing to receiving & owning the Case Study Day Bed & Ottoman/Table.

From the outset, simply dealing with the Yliving personnel was an encouragement to the risk of placing a $-sizable order online, after perusing so many horror stories from others who have done so with other dealers. And I'm relieved, pleased and grateful that the actual product is just as it appears in the photographs: Beautifully designed and carefully constructed. Again, I felt that the personnel I dealt with via computer and phone responded with prompt, courteous integrity. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services to others, nor indeed returning myself for future purchases. In a nutshell--I love the pieces & appreciated the process. (Thanks very much, Guys, for this positive experience all around.)
Designer: George Nelson
When writing about the course of his remarkable 50-year career, George Nelson described a series of creative "zaps" — moments of out-of-the-blue inspiration "when the solitary individual finds he is connected with a reality he never dreamed of."
Nelson said that for a designer to deal creatively with human needs, "he must first make a radical, conscious break with all values he identifies as antihuman." Designers also must constantly be aware of the consequences of their actions on people and society. In fact, he declared that "total design is nothing more or less than a process of relating everything to everything." So he said that rather than specializing, designers must cultivate a broad base of knowledge and understanding.
Nelson did so as few are able, and, with the help of well-timed zaps, he helped define modern, humane design.
