Characterised by clean lines, balanced proportions, tailored details and a building-block construction, this spectacular sofa provides the cornerstone that every interior needs.
Daybe belongs to a new generation of sofas designed to balance function and practicality with well-being and style. The sofa is made with layers of cushioning materials that maximise comfort, combined with generous proportions that provide plenty of room for relaxing. Although the sofa appears to form a fixed shape, the backrest detaches and slides onto the floor to create a comfortable bed. Unlike conventional sofa-beds constructed from coils, levers and springs, Daybe transforms from sofa to bed and back again in one smooth motion. Available in a variety of fabrics, the sofa will provide relaxation during daytime, and encourage deep sleep and sweet dreams at night.
Known eponymously as Morten & Jonas, Norwegian designers Morten Skjærpe Knarrum and Jonas Norheim need no further introduction. They established their studio in Bergen, Norway after receiving masters degrees from the Bergen Academy of Art and Design.
The designers create cutting-edge products, furniture and interior architecture marked by curiosity, imagination and humour. Morten & Jonas’s point of difference is being able to add design to social agendas, famously enlisting the help of incarcerated men and women to manufacturer their Bake Me a Cake table lamp in 2013.
Since then, Morten & Jonas have produced a second and third design for Northern Lighting – the multi-functional Say My Name lamp and Me floor lamp – as well as earning several awards and having their work exhibited internationally.
