What should a designer (illustrator, architect, etc.) do during a creative crisis? Of course do yoga and open your third eye! How to do it at home? Use temporarily unnecessary pencils!
So what can you do with pencils? Write, paint? Clear business! How about pencil carving? Art too!
What else are office pencils good for? The British design studio Boex 3D Creative Solutions (deals with interiors, furniture, furnishings) has created the Pencil Bench seat from 1,600 ordinary pencils with erasers.
Fresh and original! I can't say anything about convenience, perhaps a practicing yogi should be invited for testing. In addition, there are doubts about the strength of this bench. However, these considerations in no way detract from the originality of the idea!
The bench was featured at Cornwall Design Week 2007.
