Do You Sit On Your Sofa?

Do you sit on your sofa? I know that sounds like a strange question with an obvious answer, YES!! Well I sit on my sofa, but to be honest we lay on it more than we sit on it. My sofa is in our family room where the TV is located and we lay on it to watch TV. Sooooo, I got to thinking my family room is 17ft wide by 20ft deep. Not terribly large, but large enough to float the sofa in the middle of the room. What do you think about putting a daybed floating in the middle of the room and having two chairs adjacent to it instead of a regular sofa? I have a few pictures of daybeds in living rooms to give you better  idea of what I am talking about.

Can’t you just see yourself laying here and watching TV? Or snuggling with your honey?

This room has plenty of seating or laying areas for everyone.

I love this arrangement. My room is not deep enough to do two separate conversation areas but I love the concept.

I guess I am not too far off with my thought process. It looks as if others have had daybeds in their living areas. What do you think do you like the idea of a daybed in your living area. I would like to hear the pro’s and con’s you might come up with. Inquiring minds want to know??????
