About the Item

This mid-century inspired daybed / couch in cherry was originally designed as a guest bed for a little person but it has since been built for a variety of homes and projects. It is inspired by an unattributed french mid-century daybed that I came across in my travels and fell in love with. We use the frame and panel construction of the back and sides as an opportunity to showcase some exceptional wood. In the daybed pictured above we used a lovely curly cherry. The varying depths of the components lend a complexity to apparent simplicity of the design. The legs step down to the lower rails and then the panel steps down from its frame all capped by a proud top rail mitered together in the back corners. The figured maple square pegs highlight the mounting of the top rail to the legs below. The cushion is custom made and measures 32” deep by 74” long. It is made of a pre- washed black cotton canvas and a foam core. We can also make the cushion with tufted organic cotton batting or wool wrapped latex for an additional cost. Finish is a natural oil and wax.

Contemporary Bed Built in White Oak by Boyd & Allister
By Boyd & Allister
Located in Santa Fe, NM
This bed was originally designed for one of our clients who owns a historic home in Santa Fe and wanted something contemporary but also fitting with his adobe home. We designed this bed with its frame constructed from solid 2” thick walnut to pick up the weight of the beams in the home. This minimal design uses traditional joinery and clean lines, allowing the beauty of the wood to be the defining characteristic. The design detail of the leg meeting the rails is also a showcase of craftsmanship in its clean joinery. Pictured in this listing are a white oak bed frame...
