When setting out on a search for a daybed, this is pretty much the dream design we'd have in mind. It's the Zen daybed by Bonaldo...

Each Zen design has a removable cover, which comes in a wide range of colors and designs. We spotted that basic white on the Bonaldo website, along with a tufted-looking lime green, a rust orange color, and purple. The sofa bed succeeds in looking good as both sofa and bed. If you like the design but need extra storage instead of a bed, there's also an option for storage drawers where the pullout bed is normally located.
