For a public place, I think I prefer this kind of more earthy and interesting furniture over the typical utilitarian choices.  Makes a space feel more like a place I might want to stop and stay for a while.  Alternatively, I might not feel like I should actually sit on it….it’s so pretty…. What do you think?

Called ‘Pile Isle’, I found this via GardenBeet. It is designed by Elena Goray and Christoph Tönges.  It has  no glue or nails and is simply held together with  stainless steel belts.
