All Work and No Play: The Pencil Bench

The Pencil Bench is a rather unusual piece of furniture that, if nothing else, will make you say; "Hmmm, now that is unusual." As the name suggests, the Pencil Bench is just that, pencils and a bench. One thousand-six hundred pencils to be precise create a "cushion" of erasers on a dark wood base creating a great contrast.

The pencils are pink in color but if you do not care for that, then just replace them. Each pencil is removable but make sure you place back properly to avoid any painful accidents. As office furniture or bedroom bench seat goes this piece will be a great addition for the more whimsical of companies but will definitely have no place for those lacking a sense of humor.

The Pencil Bench was created by Boex 3D Creative Solutions known for their stylish designs.  While the bench is fashionable it may not be too comfortable but that’s not really the point, now is it; it looks good and that’s what counts. The piece will probably have no place in your home but maybe your study or teenager will be able to make good use of it. No word if the Pencil Beach was created using recycled pencils so if being eco-friendly is a concern you may just want to pass the bench by. 

As to date, there is no accompanying Pencil couch or Pencil table which is probably for the best. This should really be used as more of a decorative item then for practical reasons. If you like the unusual, and need a handy place to keep all your pencils, then the Pencil Bench is perfect for you.
