Sofa? / chaise? / daybed? ID  

What would you call it?
Just to clarify, I'm really just wondering which of the three terms best describe this: sofa, chaise, or daybed? Opinions?
And also, I'm looking for pictures of something similar to use as guidance for the shapes of the cushions, especially the back ones.
Thanks!

might be derivative
It reminds me a little of George Nelson Associates daybed/chaise/benches, although they would be marked HermanMiller, no? Maybe something derivative of the Nelson aesthetic. Where did you find it?

You're probably correct...
in thinking it is "in the style of" Nelson. It's probably of that era but it is less elegant than a Herman Miller piece. The legs are very blocky.
It was found on the curb in my neighborhood in a small town in southwestern Ohio. I've been lucky enough to find, within a three-block radius, a fabulous pair of Milo Baughman chairs and an Adrian Pearsall sofa! I think the older folks in town are starting to discard the furniture they bought when they first got married and moved into these houses back in the 50s and 60s, so this is stuff that started out in the living room and probably got demoted to their basements in the 70s and 80s, and now it's going to the curb.
Thanks for your comments!

Oh, Red
lucky, lucky you with your magic curb. LuciferSum has a magic dumpster, the location of which he will not disclose. I'm always a little leary of "found" upholstered furniture. Just make sure you sit it outside in the sun for a good long time if you plan on keeping any of the upholstery.
I have a fun trick that antique dealers use that I will pass on to everyone. Sometimes at auction, we stumble upon old rugs that have a great look but are filthy and stained and they end up selling for a pittance. Since they are already gross and it's impossible to make them look any worse, we buy them for literally nothing and then lay them out on top of our vans or the beds of our pickups and go through the car wash, one, two or three times. The theory is that, if they come out clean and didn't run, you now have an awesome rug for a teeny amount of money. If the colors run and the rug looks even worse than before you tried to clean it, hey, you're only out 20 buck plus the price of the car wash.
I got a Louis de Poortere rug the other day at an auction for 22 USD. It was quite frankly, disgusting. I used a scrub brush and covered it with dish soap and then dunked it in a fountain!!! to get the soap out and then hung it to dry. It looks awesome. I will post a picture tomorrow of my 22 dollar rug.

Thats hilarious!
I did som...
Thats hilarious!
I did something very stupid with a dirty rug once, I had a kirby shampooer and the rug was sitting on top of a virtually white carpet (glad I don't live there anymore) anyway as you can imagine after doing the rug 4 times the state of the white carpet underneath, I ended up pouring bleach into the detergent tank to clean the carpet. And the rug still isn't clean.
I hate vacuum cleaners, the noise, the cord and only vacuum once every couple of months now, I've found a really stiff scrubbing type broom works well, its quiet and takes 5 minutes.
