Description
At present, leisure benches are everywhere in urban public spaces, such as schools, parks, and residential communities. However, these benches only serve their basic function—providing a place for people to rest in public areas. Yet in daily life, many shortcomings have emerged. For example, due to various reasons, some leisure benches are placed in hidden locations where they are not easily noticed when lighting is poor. As a result, these benches are not fully utilized, leading to a waste of public resources. In addition, when we are out and about, we often encounter situations where our phones or cameras run out of battery, or our laptops generally have short standby times, so we can only use them indoors rather than taking them to public places like campuses or parks for extended periods. This causes great inconvenience to people’s lives. Existing public seating suffers from complex structures and exposure to sunlight, resulting in energy waste.
