Modern Daybeds

Why We Love Daybeds

Not quite a sofa and not quite a full bed frame, daybeds offer you a unique option to add into your furniture mix. Modern daybeds are especially useful in studio apartments and compact, urban locations where space may be somewhat constricted. Although smaller than a typical bed frame and headboard, these daybed sofas still provide exceptional quality and comfort for you and your guests to enjoy.

Why Choose a Daybed?

A daybed is the preferred choice for smaller spaces or anywhere that wouldn't be considered the master bedroom. Guest bedrooms are an ideal home for a daybed where they can be found providing a place to sleep while not occupying too much room. The size of these contemporary daybeds gives you the option to sit or sleep comfortably anywhere you or your guests want to. Living rooms are also fond of daybeds as they can double as a sofa for casual lounging or a bed when you feel like catching an afternoon nap. And if you truly want to use a daybed in the master bedroom, you'll have no problem working them into your design scheme.

A Daybed For Every Style

Daybeds are not as traditional as a standard bed frame. However, their size and shape give you a variety of unique options to add to your home's decor. Find modern style and versatility in a modular daybed from Kartell. Designed by Piero Lissoni, Kartell's daybeds are offered in black and white fabric options or a vibrant orange that is guaranteed to give your room a pop of color. Simple elegance and supreme comfort are accomplished in a daybed from Carl Hansen and you'll be sure to enjoy the luxurious element of leather upholstery. Lastly, look to Blu Dot for a contemporary design you can incorporate into any room as a bed or as a couch.

Choosing the Best Daybed

To work as a bed or a sofa, these designs are often large and will require you to carefully measure your space to ensure it can accommodate them. Look for dimensions like height, width and length to find the best piece for your home. You'll also need to decide if you want a sleek, minimalist bed or one with thick cushions to further support your comfort. With a size and style in mind, your next step is to find the color and leg finishes that most appropriately blend into your room's existing decor and color scheme.
