The Gärsnäs 'Dag' daybed has been designed by Teresa Lundmark and Gustav Winsth of the Beckmans College of Design in collaboration with the Sweden-based furniture brand as a piece for casual relaxation in private or public spaces alike. The daybed starts off with a beechwood frame that is structurally minimal and paired with a series of dedicated sections for tubular cushions to be positioned. This helps to further highlight the textural aesthetic of the piece and make it perfect for lying down or sitting in a relaxed manner.
The Gärsnäs 'Dag' daybed is part of the online exhibition from Stockholm Design Week and showcases what can be done to merge function and form in a manner that suits the specific needs of discerning consumers.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Tubular Cushion Furniture
- There is an opportunity to explore the use of tubular cushions as a design element in furniture to create visually interesting and comfortable pieces.
- Minimalist Daybeds
- The trend towards minimalist, structurally simple daybeds presents an opportunity to create furniture that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
- Multi-functional Furniture
- The Gärsnäs 'Dag' daybed demonstrates the growing demand for furniture that can serve multiple purposes in both private and public spaces, creating a trend towards more versatile pieces that can adapt to changing needs.
Sectors Adopting This
- Furniture Manufacturing
- The furniture manufacturing industry can innovate by exploring ways to incorporate tubular cushions into their designs to create visually interesting pieces that are comfortable and functional.
- Interior Design
- Interior designers can take advantage of the minimalist trend in daybeds and recommend simple, functional pieces that blend seamlessly into any space.
- Hospitality
- The need for multi-functional furniture such as the Gärsnäs 'Dag' daybed in public spaces requires the hospitality industry to take note and provide versatile furniture options that cater to the needs of their customers.
