Urban Mobile Wheelbarrow Bench
February 8, 2012 by Robin Plaskoff Horton
For the Dutch label Weltevree, Rogier Martens designed the Wheelbench, a mobile bench made of sustainable preserved Accoya wood. With a built-in wheelbarrow wheel, the bench is effortlessly transported.
“Moving a bench with two people has always been a chore,” explains the designer. “This is a bench you can easily manoeuvre into position. The eye-catching wheel is an invitation to find the best spot. An invitation to be active, to create your world the way you want it, time and time again.”

Awesome idea! And a great conversation piece for any outdoor situation. The mobility is a nice plus also.

Excellent! I have amazed of your ideas. I think you respect your work and innovate new ideas. I have seen your shovels and wheel barrows which are honestly excellent! Last week I purchased some beautiful white furniture for my garden and I thought those are supreme but now I confessed that your work is really awesome! I am really jealous of you that how you do this types of work so perfectly. Whatever, To buy this wheel barrows and shovels where I have to go please.

A wonderful idea. It is just a shame that the first thing that crossed my mind was “won’t somebody just steal the bench?”. Maybe I’ve been living in Glasgow for too long!

[…] Designer Stefano Sciullo was certainly on a roll in his creation of the Log Bench. Kinda reminds me of Rogier Martens’s Wheelbarrow Bench… […]
