Few pieces of furniture have the ability to turn an outdoor space from drab to fab quite like a daybed. From supervising the kids in comfort and soaking up your daily dose of vitamin D, to kicking back with a good book or drying off after a splash in the pool, daybeds offer a touch of sophistication and a whole heap of functionality. Available in more colours, styles and sizes than you could poke a stick at, there is an option for every space and all budgets.
DECISIONS, DECISIONS
With so much to choose from, you might feel as overwhelmed as a kid in a candy store when trying to choose the right daybed for your outdoor area. Fear not, because we have all the info you need to make the most informed, style-savvy choice.
SIZE MATTERS
Consider the setting and intended usage when determining the size of the daybed you’ll purchase. Measure your outdoor space and decide how much square footage you are willing to sacrifice to accommodate the piece. If space is limited, opt for a model that will still meet your requirements without overtaking the entire area. Space for side tables and other outdoor essentials needs to be factored in. The number of people you intend to seat at the same time will play a large part in the decision making process. Work out the maximum number of occupants you expect will use the daybed simultaneously and go from there.
