Mid-century sofa daybed by Miroslav Navrátil, Czechoslovakia, 1960s

This mid-century modern sofa/daybed was designed by Miroslav Navrátil and produced in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s. A strong example of Central European modernism, the piece balances architectural clarity with functional versatility. Constructed with a solid beech wood frame and legs, the sofa retains its original red wool upholstery. Its design allows transformation between seating and sleeping functions, making it both practical and sculptural. The proportions and restrained detailing reflect Navrátil’s emphasis on rational design, comfort, and longevity. The upholstery shows visible signs of age and use, including minor stains, which contribute to the authentic vintage character of the piece. Good original condition with minor signs of wear and age.
