Although I am very much a fantasy, sci-fi loving girl, I’m also a nature nut at heart and so I love seeing creations inspired by our natural surroundings, such as the BonSeop Bench. Not only that, but when such creations act organically as well, I’m sold.
Clearly, the BonSeop Bench provides both shelter and shade with it’s floral umbrella. Also, it’s ‘petals’ are transparent, allowing natural light to flow through for whoever is beneath. At night, the BonSeop Bench acts like a wind turbine which create energy to light up.
