Description from the seller
Extraordinary daybed following the lines characteristic of the Modern Movement of the mid-20th century. It features a very light metal frame, supported on 4 slender square legs. The armrests open outward and are upholstered in faux leather and finished with studs. The rectangular-shaped cushion or mattress rests on a lattice base and is upholstered in camel-colored chenille. The design adopts a decidedly modern aesthetic, whose priority is elegance, comfort and simplicity, qualities that make it easily combinable in both environments that follow the modern aesthetic line and more classical.
Modern Movement
The Modern Movement began in 20th-century architecture, but soon spread to design. It formed as a reaction and break with classical architecture, proposing a much more functional architecture and design, in which form follows function, free of decorative artifices. Both in architecture and furniture decorative objects are dispensed with entirely and it sticks simply to utility, from which its beauty derives.
