I’m trying to make my small apartment feel more like a living room than a bedroom—how to make a daybed look like a sofa without it still obviously looking like a bed?
To make a daybed look more like a sofa, the key is to downplay its “bed” features and enhance its living room appeal.
First, use a high-quality cover with a nice drape to fully cover the mattress, keeping the surface neat and structured so it resembles a sofa seat.
Next, use cushions to create shape: place a row of large square pillows along the back against the wall to act as a “backrest,” and add bolster or decorative pillows on both ends to mimic “armrests.”
Finally, casually drape a throw blanket over the end of the bed and pair it with a low coffee table to shift the visual focus away from “bed” and toward “sofa.”
