Dezeen Showroom: plump cylindrical cushions sit atop a solid beech frame to form this "textural masterpiece" of a daybed designed by Teresa Lundmark and Gustav Winsth for Swedish furniture maker Gärsnäs.
The Dag daybed features a simple slatted construction reminiscent of traditional Japanese joinery, with a small ledge at one end supporting the headrest and another forming a small shelf on the other end.
The geometric timber combines with the chubby cushions to create what Gärsnäs describes as a "textural masterpiece".
"The small profile of this daybed makes it ideal for bringing extra seating in front of a window or at the foot of the bed," said the family-owned company, which has been producing furniture since 1893.
Like all of the company's products, Dag is made by craftspeople in Österlen using raw materials sourced in Sweden or nearby Denmark, with the aim to create products that will stand the test of time.
"With curiosity and sustainability at the core of their vision, Gärsnäs aims to make a difference in a world facing an environmental crisis," said design store Lekker Home, which stocks the brand.
