Designers Use Their Imagination on Benches
Dog Shaped Bench
Being in the park, walking there, watching others do things, being entertained, or just sitting on the park benches that have a power to stop people in their tracks and convince them to take a seat; all these can give a tremendous delight. The designers get an enjoyment by creating their designs in furniture, in this case designing the park benches, using their endless and grand imagination.
Benches in New York
There are some samples of benches to look at. They are in New York City Park. It is the most prosaic of public furnishing. It has morphed into a blank canvas on which designers, landscape architects and artists have unleashed their imagination. There you can see wooden chaises roomy enough for two. Bar-stool-style perches with river views. Communal work stations for laptop users.
The varieties of benches seem endless. One of the architects says, “We want people to feel comfortable. We need to get away from this whole notion that you must sit upright and face this direction. That is so old school.” Indeed, he is right about this statement. In the modern times it is very usual to see something weird, something really strange to eth eye, but we get used to such things quite quickly and not very surprised anymore.
NY City Park Benches
It is liked when wooden benches are sharply used in combination with neat industrial material such as a steel and concrete. This bench has it all, topped up with a superb finishing as well as being perfectly dimensioned. It is one of this object that makes us imagine the designer making real size mock-ups and carefully testing the height, length and depth of the seat.

If we look at this bench, we might think of the alien’s part of the space ship or a part of their home, like in the old movie Alien. Someone can have a different viewpoint, but indeed, it has a form of something from a different world, planet.

By the designer’ description: Amanda was designed for a private client who wanted a large bench flowing through his space. I designed the piece to direct the sitter to face multiple directions due to the functions of the space… this helped to dictate the initial design.
