Eæ Daybed In Cognac Leather With Cerused Iroko Legs & Burnished Nickel

The EÆ daybed in Cognac leather with Cerused Iroko legs & burnished nickel frame.“I wanted to create something better than Mies van der Rohe,” says designer Ben Erickson of Erickson Aesthetics about his EAE daybed, which bears a striking resemblance to the midcentury talent’s Barcelona chaise. Rather than upholstering the Horween leather in tufts on the seat, Erickson opted for a ribbing effect. “I love the profile it provides and it’s a more contemporary way to upholster a piece,” adds Erickson. Other modernized elements? A subtle blackened brass finish and asymmetrically tapered legs.
