Furniture lust.....

So as most of you know, my biggest design project at the moment is the nursery. The design challenge is that it is our only other bedroom, which also doubles as my closet and the room also has a door to the backyard. AUGH! The space is tiny and it really needs to function as the Baby C's room, a guest room for when moms come to help out and just a nice calm room for me to hang out with Baby C when everyone is gone. So I've been on a big hunt for a sleeper/daybed that is modern, has clean lines and is not going to overwhelm the tiny room. This is what I've found so far, what do you think? I'm kinda anti-futon because I associate it with my younger years. When J+I moved in together we had 3 futons between the two of us. Anyway, I'm completely obsessed with finding the perfect piece for this room, but with my budget, I might just end up with a futon. Here's to furniture dreaming.
American Modern Daybed based on the George Nelson design from 1948 shows the "less is more" concept in action. Nelson's timeless straight forward daybed design has been expounded upon with today's manufacturing techniques and FSC-certified solid Maple wood. The Modern American Daybed features open slat design for circulation, removable back cushions for added space, and removable covers by Maharam for easy cleaning.
