Water Drop-Inspired Bench

'Public Chair' by Pop Chang

Pop Chang was motivated by a drop of water to create his ‘Public Chair.’ This cute circular seating design follows many drip-inspired concepts we have seen in lighting, accessories and furniture.

This particular bench has a comfy backrest and an integrated light post to provide ambiance at night. Chang envisions his chair being used at poolside and at beaches.

Can’t you just see a bunch of these surrounding a pool at some hip boutique hotel in Miami? I love the pop colors too!
