Dezeen Showroom: the Outline Daybed by Anderssen & Voll for Muuto features "understated yet characterful proportions," according to the designers.

Described as a contemporary take on archetypal Scandinavian designs from the sixties, the new daybed is an addition to the Outline series of sofas by the Norwegian design studio for the Danish brand.

"With the Outline Daybed, we wanted to create a visually light and elegant design with lots of comfort, translating aspects of modern architecture into the design through juxtaposing elements," said Torbjørn Anderssen and Espen Voll of Anderssen & Voll.

"The Outline Daybed is created with understated yet characterful proportions for a simple and elegant look, complemented by its soft seat and slender legs."

The slender steel legs come in a variety of finishes including aluminium, while the seat can be upholstered in a range of fabrics or leathers. The Outline Daybed Cushion can be added for extra comfort.

"There’s a calm serenity about the Outline Daybed, having an inherent comfort alongside clean lines and a strong architectural presence, brought forth by its overlapping forms that bring a refined touch to the expression of the design," said the designers.
