This 'Big Scrubber' garden seat by Ben Baker for Hen and Hammock looks like a giant brush. Its bristles are comprised of willow canes, which give slightly once they're sat upon. The English ash seat finishes off the furniture piece, which would be equally gorgeous whether it's placed indoors or outdoors.
