# Soft Wooden Sleepers The Elisa Strozyk Wooden Daybed Design Debuts in Milan By Cody Turner | Published 2012-07-05 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-daybed References: [candyandcandy](http://www.candyandcandy.com/) & [elisastrozyk.de](http://www.elisastrozyk.de/) Elisa Strozyk has created another amazing wood-based design with her Wooden Daybed. The Daybed was created using [paper-thin wood pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/formwork-collection), quilting them together in a very unique style. For anyone who is familiar with the works of Elisa Strozyk, this piece falls right in line with the rest of her body of work. The Wooden Daybed was designed for an exhibition called The Threads That Binds Us, held in Milan and curated by Barbara Brondi and Marco Raino during Milan Design Week 2012. Elisa Strozyk says on her site that, "The fabric appears to be a common upholstery textile but transforms into a free grown shape which is autonomous from the furniture piece." The daybed was based off of a [found object from the early 1950s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grain-pile). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 89% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Paper-thin Wood:** Opportunities for using paper-thin wood pieces to create unique and unconventional designs in furniture and home decor. - **Quilting Wood:** Innovations in quilting techniques for wood to create intricate and functional pieces like daybeds and chairs. - **Textured Furniture:** Trend towards incorporating texture and tactile elements in furniture design using unconventional materials like paper-thin wood. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Innovations in the use of unconventional materials like paper-thin wood could revolutionize furniture manufacturing. - **Home Decor:** Opportunities for designers and manufacturers to incorporate unconventional and textural elements into home decor pieces like daybeds and chairs. - **Interior Design:** Trend towards incorporating unique and unconventional furniture pieces like the Wooden Daybed into interior design schemes for added texture and interest. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Squishy Clay-Made Daybeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-soil-daybed.md) - [Minimal Stone Day Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lattice-day-bed.md) - [Stylishly Modern Daybeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-daybed.md) - [Vienna Straw Headboard Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiko-wien-bed.md) - [Artful Four-Poster Bed Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-bed-installation.md) - [Chic Curved Bed Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bedroom-furniture.md) - [Japanese Design-Inspired Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thuma.md) - [Beachside Modern Daybed Setups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contour-daybed.md) - [Relaxing Dual Leg-Framed Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wabi-bed.md)
