Somewhere for the spare blanket.
Honey-coloured fieldstone walls. Old timber beams. A deep-set window onto an apple orchard in Knowlton, in Quebec's Eastern Townships.
Two matching oak nightstands hold pleated lamps, and a sand knit throw lies across the oatmeal and white linen.
In this room, Daisy's grey upholstery provides a quieter surface among the irregular stone and old timber. Its rectangular headboard brings a clear, familiar shape, while the long storage footboard closes the foot of the bed.
The room has the gentle character of a farmhouse that is used every day. Extra blankets come out when the evenings turn cold. Spare pillows are kept for visitors. Towels and linen need somewhere to live between uses.
Daisy makes a place for those things within the bed itself.
The footboard opens to reveal storage beneath its padded lid. Useful things, given a proper place.
