The Daybeds Guide
Are you looking for new and luxurious ways to add function to a spare bedroom or home office? When extra floor space is hard to find, a daybed serves as a versatile solution to maximize square footage while also creating a stylish, inviting aesthetic. Learn more about the perks of daybeds in our full guide below.
What Is A Daybed?
Think of a daybed as a hybrid between a sofa and a standard bed. The style is celebrated for its ability to effortlessly transform from a comfy place to lounge during the day, to a restful haven you can settle into for a good night’s rest. The daybed design is three-sided to hold its own as a cozy seat, while using a standard mattress as the base layer of cushion. Daybed frames are available in the same range of styles you can find with traditional sofas; mattresses, pillows, and bedding are typically sold separately.
Daybeds can be used in guest rooms, home offices, or even living rooms—anywhere that you might want to have the option for extra sleeping arrangements.
And, no need to confine the style and comfort of a daybed to indoor spaces only. You can also bring luxurious leisure to the patio, terrace or backyard with an outdoor daybed.
Before You Buy
A daybed might be the perfect addition to your space, but be sure to take a few easy steps first to ensure you find the best fit for your home.

F.A.Q.
Can daybeds be used as primary beds?
Yes, daybeds can absolutely be used as primary beds. They offer a functional solution for smaller spaces or multipurpose rooms where a traditional bed may not fit or may not be practical. Daybeds provide a sleeping option comfortable enough to be used daily, so long as you invest in a good mattress, or on occasion for guests. Their dual-purpose design makes them functional as a seating option during the day and easy to transform into a bed for sleeping at night. Daybeds are an excellent choice for guest rooms, home offices, or studio apartments.
What is the purpose of a daybed?
The primary purpose of a daybed is to provide a comfortable sleeping space at night while serving as a stylish and functional piece of furniture during the day. Unlike traditional beds, daybeds often feature a backrest and side arms that resemble those of a sofa or couch. This design allows them to blend into living spaces and serve many needs, like lounging, reading, or socializing, during the day. Because they are versatile and space-saving, they’re often used in small rooms or areas where maximizing functionality is key. To style a daybed for both day and night use, focus on comfort and flexibility. During the day, arrange decorative pillows and throws to create a cozy seating area. When it's time to sleep, remove extra pillows and throws, and dress the daybed with clean linens.
Do daybeds need special mattresses?
No, daybeds don't necessarily require special mattresses. However, choosing the right mattress will guarantee comfort and support. A standard twin mattress should fit perfectly on most daybeds, but some daybeds require a specific mattress height to give the desired look and functionality. Using a mattress that’s thick enough will prolong the lifespan of both the mattress and the daybed frame.
