Tititkaka Bench by Naoto Fukasawa
Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa has created the Titikaka bench for B&B Italia.
From B&B Italia:
The new Titikaka bench, in teak lathes with an aluminium frame, contradicts the rigid shape of traditional outdoor benches. Perhaps the waves of the bolivian lake inspired this ingenious piece where the surface of the seat seems to almost ripple with wonderful effect of wind over water. in fact, around the aluminium frame the lathes, which continue to the floor on both sides of the bench, have a wavy progression, creating curves that are sculptural yet truly practical for the ergonomics of the seat.

The soft curves of this bench would look good among the vibrant colors of the fallen autumn leaves.

Beautiful… and really effective sleeping place for homeless people. Beats sleeping ON a park bench!
Throw over a cover – voila! Some cities do have them…
