  1. Salmon

    These are nice but not that nice. :S

  2. Joel

    Some of these look sorta unconfortable and just plain strange.
    Some are cool though.

  3. Kan

    awesome,, loved the Quarry Bench

  4. Zunny

    It’s a huge amount of material for a very simple function/purpose-
    pretty wasteful in most cases.if someone tried to make a bench using the least amount of material that might be interesting.
    what happened to recycled materials?

  5. Den

    I agree some look rather uncomfortable, and the use of material is indeed excessive in most cases! Why pencils?!

  6. Betty

    Theses are really wonderful but the STAY bench is brilliant. It would be great to have that design as the new park bench classic.

  7. Moo

    A standard wooden park bench looks more comfortable than any of these.

  8. forumlogic

    Might be okay for a short sit if you carry a well-upholstered rear – if not, ouch!!

  9. bird

    I think those are all very well designed. I agree that we need more eco-friendly designs, but I still think that the world needs more good design such as the stuff shown here

  10. Toasty O's

    A lovely roundup of over-designed benches. Blah. The reef bench at the top has potential.

    We need benches that serve the needs of the people that use them.

    How about a bench that folds down like a futon for homeless people to sleep on? With some sort of cover that rolls up and over to protect them from the elements?

  11. timmay

    amazing, but wouldnt the pencil bench break when sit on it.

  12. Karin L.

    Very aesthetically pleasing!

  13. Stacey

    @ timmay – It’s the same idea as a bed of nails in that the weight is equally distributed so it doesn’t break or make harsh pressure points

  14. Reilly

    Very cool.

  15. Barbara

    I like their shape even if some look agressive.

  16. Jason

    Some pretty funky designs. Doesn’t look very easy to maintain.
