Mid-Century Danish Teak Daybed, Denmark 1960s

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
The term “daybed” traditionally applied to sofas and chaise lounges used for socializing during the day. Modern daybeds can be used in much the same way, so the term is now used to describe these bed frames. Many European designers tried their hands at this form of furniture, yet few remain known to this day. Scandinavian models, however, have never lost their popularity thanks to their understated design and quality.

There are numerous advantages to having a daybed such as this beautiful Danish teak model. A daybed adds comfort, style and function to any space; therefore, it goes well with the Scandinavian design principles. This model, inspired by classic Danish furniture design and simplicity, features a bed frame of solid teak wood with a single long, upholstered cushion. The unquestionable main feature of this daybed is the upholstery that has a beautiful Scandinavian colour scheme and pattern that highlights the daybed’s geometric form. The body appears to float above the legs, while the cushion enhances comfort and relaxation. The keywords around the design are quality, comfort, and simplicity.

The sleek look of this daybed with its clean lines, functional design and expert craftsmanship has the characteristics of “honest” design that Danish designers are still celebrated for. The newly upholstered body is delightful, and is sure to bring the Nordic charm into any environment.
