THE YEAR OF THE DAYBED

Although I’m late to the game sharing this roundup, I didn’t want to miss the chance to jump on the daybed train, as it’s been one of the biggest home decor trends I’ve watched explode this over the course of this year. Daybeds are hitting it big this year for many reasons – not only are they being styled as simple settee’s in hallways and entries, but they’re making versatile statements in living room and nurseries, as pieces that can easily transition between sitting and sleeping. Daybeds without backs look great styled against walls or as low-profile benches in living areas, while traditional daybeds with backs are perfect for a porch, sunroom, or guest room. They also work well in a library setting, to make it easy to transition to an extra bedroom. I’ve always wanted to work in a daybed into one of my projects, and I may have an idea I can start working on this fall. There are tons of styles on the market now, from traditional velvet pieces to mid-century profiles and even a pretty canopy bed from Anthropologie that I think would make a stunning statement.
