Flickr finds: Thai benches

In thinking about seating for CTS, would it work to do it along the circulation paths in strategic places inspired by the traditional Thai way of doing it?

The benches hang slightly off the edge of the raised terrace...this could be reimagined in metal, concrete or wood, and combined with planters. I think it could work well on the second level, especially in the area surrounding the courtyard to maximize the circulation space.
