Postcard Bench

A bench designed for an entrance of a hospital in Bristol, England.
It is in the shape of a postcard with an actual letter from one of the hospital's patients hand carved into it:

"...I would like you to know what a wonderful job all the members of staff on that ward are doing, they were kind, polite and caring, no job was too much for them to make my stay on the ward as comfortable as possible."

I just love it when I bump into a design that is so simple and that just works! Makes me think, "why the hell didn't I think of that?!"
