Quick Summary

A daybed is a piece of furniture that can function as both a couch and a bed. Historically, it has evolved from a chaise longue to a more versatile piece that serves as a seat during the day and a bed at night. This dual functionality makes it a popular choice, especially in modern living spaces.12
