#38: A Bench That Moves
A moving bench? Ingenious! What an easy way to ensure you’re always shaded. This one is so simple, you wonder why no one else has done it yet. I hope more parks do this because a bench is rather useless boiling like bacon in the sun. One of the saddest sights is an unused bench!
I live in Florida, so people often say it’s too hot to be outside. With this design hack, that’s no longer an excuse! A simple modification like this could potentially increase park visitation by a lot! If it were up to me, I’d never put another park bench out in the open sun. No one will sit there, benches break down in the sun, so it’s a waste of taxpayer money.
