Hunter's comment
Gradually interaction between people shift from real life to digital. You may think this is not a problem, but research shows in eg the Netherlands, as large as 70% of the population experience loneliness. A phenomenon that is not exclusive to this little country. The UK government tasked a Minister with the same topic: To reduce the number of people feeling lonely.
Govert Flint, a Dutch designer, created a solution:
The bench that moves when sitting on it.
The Idea: Install these benches in public and semi public spaces (eg office, reception, doctor, hospital) to prevent people from doing something in isolation, like doing something with their mobile phone, and stimulate interaction and conversations with others, like strangers.
The bench is in essence a water based bench: So simple, So entertaining, So effective!
To own one, it will set you back with 2.500 Euro.
