I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
The Torii Bench began with a simple question asked every day at Placyle: what if plastic waste could be turned into something beautiful? The idea was to show the true value of plastic, not as garbage but as possibility. While walking beneath the red gates of Fushimi Inari in Kyoto, the designer was struck by…
A new chapter in contemporary design has arrived with IMMATERIAL 0001, a bench created from the unexpected partnership of Jacques Cartier Studio, ANAGRAM and Vestre. Debuting at Paris Fashion Week, this piece is more than just a place to sit. It is a bold statement blending innovation, craftsmanship and conceptual artistry, born from the merging…
If you’ve ever been to a concert, you know that those crowd-control barriers can be both your salvation and your pain. They are, of course, meant to keep people in line, but if there’s ever a crowd rush and you get pushed up against one, it can be really tough. While they’re built to be…
When I cover Muddycap’s quirky chair designs, I’m usually of the opinion that they definitely need to be built out as prototypes. This one, I’m sort of on the fence.

I live in a city where outdoor public seating is a rarity. When you’re walking around, especially in oppressive heat, there is no place to temporarily sit and rest. But even cities that have enough benches and seats for public use aren’t that friendly and useful for older people. It’s a “one-size-fits-all” kind of seating…
When I was young, one of my favorite things to do with my Legos was to create pieces of furniture using different bricks and shapes. Of course these designs were pretty random and if made into actual furniture, they would probably not hold anyone or anything up as they were pretty whimsical. I didn’t grow…
Sitting on public benches can sometimes be a tricky situation, depending on what kind of person you are. If you’re naturally an extrovert, you probably wouldn’t mind sharing a bench with a stranger and might even strike up a conversation with that other person. If you’re not that comfortable with social interactions with strangers, you…
