  • This collection brings together benches and nearby street elements that quietly suggest affection, care, memory, or presence. From a Christmas-time intervention highlighting homelessness in Birmingham to playful lamp posts, heart-shaped seating, painted messages, and sculptural benches that turn reading or resting into part of the artwork, each piece uses familiar public furniture to communicate something personal.

    1. Love Is Here Bench

    A metal bench carries a weathered sign reading “LOVE IS HERE,” mounted against a brick wall. The worn surface suggests long-term exposure and everyday use.


    2. Love Bench

    A sculptural bench spells the word “Love,” with red interior details following the curves of the letters. The piece functions both as seating and as a freestanding object placed in a park setting.


    3. Open Book Benches

    Concrete benches are shaped like open books, with printed text running across the seating surface. The repetition creates a small reading landscape integrated into a pedestrian area.


    4. Umbrella Lamp Bench

    A street lamp bends over a bench while holding an open umbrella, suggesting protection from rain. The installation combines standard street furniture into a single scene.


    5. Leaning Street Lamps

    Two lamp posts tilt toward each other beside a bench, creating the impression of interaction. The altered posture gives the objects a human-like presence.


    6. Heart Frame Bench

    A white frame with a suspended red heart surrounds a wooden bench. The installation is placed in a green, open landscape and invites people to sit inside the heart shape.


    7. Red Heart Bench

    A wooden bench painted bright red features simple white heart shapes along the backrest. The piece is placed along a path bordered by trees and greenery.


    8. Reindeer Sleigh Bench — Banksy in Birmingham, UK

    A stenciled mural of Santa’s reindeer appears to pull a real bench forward, turning it into a sleigh. The work was created beside a man sleeping on the bench, linking the festive imagery directly to homelessness during the winter period. More: Banksy? Who Is The Visionary of Street Art? (25 Photos)

    Winter isn’t just about shoveling driveways and shivering in the cold. For those with a bit of imagination, a fresh blanket of snow is the ultimate blank canvas. From giant puns on a sidewalk to ghosts that got caught in the frost, these 8 photos show that a little bit of freezing weather is no match for a great sense of humor. When the world turns white, it’s the perfect time to remind everyone that nature can be just as funny as it is beautiful.More: Funny Snow Sculptures (10 Photos)1. The Frozen GhostThere is such a thing as “too cold to haunt.” This unfortunate spirit seems to have been caught mid-scare during a record-breaking frost, ending up as a permanent (at least until spring) addition to the building’s architecture. It’s a perfect example of how a bit of ice and the right location can create an accidental masterpiece.2. Giant Eyeglasses by Pavel Puhov in RussiaThe late Pavel Puhov, also known as Pasha P183, was famous for his “street installations.” By using a simple streetlight as the temple piece for a giant pair of glasses drawn in the snow, he transformed a lonely park into a character. It’s a brilliant use of scale and existing urban elements.3. Snow Angel Frog by David ZinnDavid Zinn is the king of small-scale magic. Here, he’s used a simple hole in the snow to house one of his signature characters, making it look like the little guy just completed a very successful snow angel. It’s a quiet, whimsical interaction that rewards those who are actually looking where they walk.More!: This Is Amazing Art By David Zinn! (11 Photos)🔗 Follow David Zinn on Instagram4. The Mailbox EaterThis is one way to ensure you never get bills. Someone turned their mailbox into the wide-open mouth of a snow monster, complete with a leafy crown. It’s a great example of “guerrilla” winter art that turns a boring household chore into a reason for neighbors to stop and smile.5. “Two Feet” of SnowA literal pun is sometimes the best kind of art. Instead of complaining about the accumulation, these residents spent their time sculpting two massive, realistic feet on the sidewalk. It’s a visual joke that lands perfectly for anyone who has ever heard a weather report warn about “two feet of snow.”6. Dromeas (The Runner) in Athens, GreeceUsually, this iconic sculpture made of stacked glass shards looks like it’s mid-sprint through the Mediterranean heat. But when a rare snowstorm hits Athens, the glass captures the white frost, making the “Runner” look like an ice-giant charging through the city. It shows how weather can completely redefine a permanent statue.7. The Snow CatsSimple, effective, and adorable. By packing snow against the bark of trees in a local park, someone created a family of white cats “climbing” to the safety of the branches. It’s a low-effort, high-impact way to add a bit of life to a dormant winter forest.8. Sledding Into Reality by David ZinnAnother David Zinn masterpiece where the art “leaks” out of the environment. A tiny alien character is seen sledding out of a massive snow pile and onto the bare pavement. It’s a clever use of the transition between the shoveled path and the winter piles, making the sidewalk feel like a playground.More!: Happy Art by David Zinn (10 Photos)🔗 Follow David Zinn on InstagramMore: Fun With Snow (8 Photos)Which snow sculpture is your favorite?
