This is beautiful. Did they use ingredients that were safe to treat it with? This is something I'd love to have in my yard.

This is beautiful and interesting. Did they treat it with things that won't harm the living wood?

Living bench

A bench like this could make waiting at a bus stop halfway bearable, not to mention help absorb some of those exhaust fumes when the bus finally arrives. This beautiful living bench by TreeNovation is one of the group’s many inventions that utilize specialized horticultural techniques to turn living trees into functional structures. This particular bench was donated to a children's playground at a hospital in Tel Aviv.
