Until recently, you could decorate your place with Modernist furniture--stuff designed in the 1920s on--and still use it for anything you had to do: eat meals, read books, watch TV. Although items like the Wassily and Barcelona chairs were designed well before television, they were suited for any kind of sit-down purpose you had between the 1920s and the current century.
But now more and more of us are surfing the web, and not at our desks with tower machines; we're lounging around with laptops. As there isn't really much furniture designed for this purpose, designer Manual Saez is taking up the slack with this Daybed, intended specifically for internet surfing.
What do you guys think, do we need dedicated furniture for this activity? Has Saez fired an early shot in what will be a long campaign, or do you think this is just a passing fad?
