Some seats are for sitting up straight. The Zuva Daybed isn't one of them.
It's the same dependable, dapper Zuva you already know, just stretched into a long, low lounging surface. Think less "formal seating" and more "the spot you disappear into on a Sunday", a good book, an afternoon nap, or a spot for guests to sink into during a get-together. Built in Cape Town and made to order, it swaps Zuva's single-seat sofa silhouette for a daybed shape without losing any of the comfort or craftsmanship the range is known for.
What Is the Zuva Daybed?
The Zuva Daybed is a low-profile, extended lounging piece from Zorora's Essentials range. It carries over the same sturdy frame, high-density foam, and low, wide arms as the Zuva sofa and ottoman, just reshaped into a long daybed form that works as comfortably for lounging solo as it does for hosting a crowd.
It's part of the Zuva family, Zorora's "laid-back, dapper, homey gentleman" collection, known for being easy to live with and easy on the budget.
Design & Comfort
-
Low, wide arms carry over Zuva's signature relaxed silhouette, so the Daybed reads as part of the same family as the Zuva sofa and ottoman.
-
High-density foam seat cushion offers a supportive, firm-but-comfortable feel that holds its shape over time.
-
Polyester fibre back box cushions, finished with a set of side arm scatter cushions, add softness without losing structure.
-
Signature timber block foot in a modern black stain finish grounds the design with the same dapper, understated look found across the Zuva range.
Built to Last
Every Zuva Daybed frame is locally crafted from precision CNC-cut OSB board, reinforced with solid pine struts for a durable, high-quality base. It's backed by:
It's also made without toxic chemicals or animal-derived materials, in line with Zorora's wider commitment to non-toxic, animal-product-free manufacturing.
