A Day(bed) in the Life....

Lately, I’ve been really drawn to daybeds. I’m not necessarily talking about the flowery, feminine daybeds that were really popular decades ago. You know, like this:

I’m talking about tailored, sophisticated daybeds for a living room or home office. One of the benefits of a backless daybed in a living room is an opportunity to provide seating without obstructing a sightline. It also divides a large or long room into conversation areas without closing anyone off.
