There are many places in the world where, according to Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, the folk trail will never grow. We bring to your attention to get acquainted, undoubtedly, with the most popular place to which the path is not only not overgrown, but will expand and expand as long as the human race exists! We are talking, of course, about the toilet. It is unlikely that anyone will dare to challenge the extremely utilitarian characteristics of this room as a whole and some of its technical elements in particular. If you have a desire to dispute, drain a liter or two of water, wait a certain amount of time, and then argue. However, at that moment your thoughts and aspirations will be occupied by something completely different!
"Frank" toilets
They say that in the capital of the Netherlands, Amsterdam, people are very genial and open. If someone thinks otherwise, we suggest taking a look at the open booths installed on the streets of the city. Yes, that's right, these are toilets. Who said that in order to relieve a small need, a man needs solitude? Let's leave prejudices, as those who installed similar toilet cubicles left them. In general, this is unexpected decision one of the most ancient, but vital and recurring issues would be perfect for those who sometimes on the streets of our cities confuse the walls of houses and pillars with a latrine. Excuse me, what are the ladies to do? It looks like the solution this issue is currently under development.
underground toilets
Be sure - this device, installed on the streets of some cities in the UK, will not leave indifferent any man who has drunk a couple of extra glasses of beer. Just imagine a massive futuristic-looking booth with three standing places slowly crawling out of the asphalt! Everything happens next according to the same scheme and in the same "atmosphere of trust" as in the open booths of Amsterdam. After the job is done and the visitors leave the urinal niches, the toilet stall is again hidden underground. Well, it’s very convenient, but women are again left out of work, since these toilets are intended only for men. In addition, the slow speed with which the toilet crawls to the surface is a little embarrassing, and the prospect of hiding underground, so to speak, in the midst of the process, is also frightening!
Transparent toilets
If you want to always be aware of all the events that are happening around you (and, in the literal sense of the word), then you simply must visit this transparent toilet, also installed in one of the British cities. In fact, such a toilet should be called rather translucent, since the visitor is not visible from the street, and the visitor himself gets the impression that that he, excuse me, takes care of a small and a big need right in the middle of the street. If, while in such a toilet, you see how one of the passers-by comes up to the booth and starts to peer into it, do not think bad about him / her, as the person is most likely just looking ... in the mirror (the outer surface of the booth trimmed mirror panels). Particularly impressionable persons are advised to avoid visiting this "exhibitionist's dream", and if you really have to do this, then just close your eyes!
The coldest toilet
What are the requirements that a person usually makes to the toilet? Unless, of course, the dream of your life is a golden toilet, then all people have more or less standard requirements for toilet room and to the toilet in particular: it should be warm, dry and comfortable. Yes, and it would be nice to have an interesting newspaper nearby so that the time passes properly! However, in this toilet room, you obviously will not need a fresh press (unless, of course, you want to, so that they would then tear you off your seat, warming it with blowtorch !). You will have to use such an exotic accessory made of ice if you decide to stay in a unique ice hotel, which is built every year in one of the towns in Sweden. The main beauty of this toilet is that there are never queues in front of it, as it is unlikely that someone will occupy it for a long time!
The most "taunting" toilet
A sense of humor is a good thing! However, when you really want to go to the toilet, it seems that it becomes no time for jokes. They allowed themselves to disagree with this statement in the office of one of the companies, which is, again, in the Netherlands (well, the citizens of this "fun" country cannot treat with due reverence the issue, sorry Bladder!). This time, toilet visitors are invited to spend a few minutes at the urinals, immediately above which are posted photographs of various women. The women in these photographs seem to be looking at, let's say, the inguinal region of visitors, frankly mocking something. However, it is not difficult to guess that the young ladies make fun of small sizes, you know what the visitors have! Men with extremely vulnerable vanity (as well as those whose dimensions of dignity really serve as the subject of complexes) are not recommended to enter!
Most of us never give importance to the toilets they use. However, there are many eccentrics in the world who have decided that the usual "white friend" no longer suits them, and they need something else - more interesting and unusual. It is their creations that we will consider now, and discuss a little.
Toilet seat
Tired after a hard day at work? Wanna go home and fall apart in easy chair? But really itch in the bathroom out of need? No problem!
Meet the 4th place of our hit parade of toilet bowls! Toilet seat!
Now we can fully enjoy the rest, returning home after a tiring day. However, you will have to hang plasma in the toilet, because you will get bored sitting in such a toilet seat for a long time. And so - you can watch TV. Also, it would be nice to put a small one next to it coffee table. You never know, you will want to drink coffee or tea in the process. After all, it was really comfortable to sit.
In such a chair, you can also take a nap. The only thing is, if you have only one bathroom at home, then your cohabitants are unlikely to be happy that you can’t get into the toilet now. But should we care when we have such a beautiful toilet seat?
Zombie toilet
Would you dare to sit on one? And, okay, if it were in your house, and you are already used to such a toilet. And imagine, in some hotel they decided to take advantage of such a miracle at night? Heart attack secured.
However, the author of this creation approached carefully the creation of his work of art. Look, all the smallest details are worked out. Even the blood oozes from the tank.
Toilet with aquarium fish in the tank
Decided to visit the "white friend", and admire the fish swimming and frolicking in the tank. But don't worry about the fish. The design of this tank is such that the fish are in a specially designated compartment, and the water entering the tank does not enter the aquarium. The fish are also completely safe. They will not be flushed down the drain after using this aquarium toilet.
Of course, despite the fact that the fish are safe, you need to ask the fish themselves, what is it like for them to live in the toilet, and not in a cozy living room or bedroom? I think if they could speak, they would have long ago complained about the owner of such a toilet to the World Society for the Protection of Animals.
transparent toilet
This is too much. I can hardly imagine the expediency of this creation. It certainly looks good in the picture. But the picture does not show what it is filled with after visiting the toilet by a person.
However, even in such a strange design, you can find advantages. Suppose someone dropped their mobile phone. What to do? How to find? Put your hand in there and rummage around? Somehow unhygienic, and unpleasant. But with a transparent toilet, everything would be much easier. You can immediately see where the mobile phone is and get it.
golden toilet
Of course, no one is particularly surprised by this now. Not that I want to say that the golden toilet is so widespread that every second inhabitant of the planet Earth owns it. No. However, most of you have probably heard of them. Be it a joke or a real story.
With the golden toilet, the meaning of the phrase "sitting on the throne" takes on a whole new meaning. A golden plunger can be used as a scepter, or a golden toilet brush can be used. And what to use as a power? What about the royal crown? These points need to be thought through more carefully.
Toilet bowl for really tough guys
Always dreamed of being a biker? Are you exhausted by the thirst for adventure and the lack of a wind of freedom in your face? Do you want to be like one of those tough guys in leather vests? Introducing "baikonitaz" - a toilet bowl for real bikers.
Just imagine, having such a bike, you can drive without stopping for much more time. Why stop? Everything is at hand now. Not that it is right at hand, but how convenient it is! Decided to go a long distance? I saddled the baikonitase and drove off! Tempted to make a stop? And it turns out that nothing needs to be done. It is necessary to think about installing such seats in cars.
Toilet decorated with Swarovski crystals
We have already considered the golden toilet before. But the golden toilet somehow suits the male half of the population more. As we found out, this is a monarchical symbol. What's a lady to do? Do not go to the usual white toilet! How low!
But a solution has been found! Now you can get a toilet decorated with Swarovski crystals! Most true ladies, reading this news, must have breathed a sigh of relief. “Finally!” they thought.
However, there is required condition use of this toilet. Ordinary sewer water is unlikely to work. You need to use eau de parfum. But, having such a toilet, I would like to visit the toilet so often that I would have to eat everything that is in sight. After all, how nice it is to sit on such a beautiful and shiny, in literally, toilet bowl!
Wonderful flower-shaped urinals
Of course, peeing for flowers is not good. Unless it's flower urinals designed specifically for this need.
Urinals of this design will "enliven" public toilets, and bring interest to the process of emptying the bladder. I think many visitors to an establishment with similar urinals would be satisfied.
Of course, the smell from these flowers would not come from a flower at all. But there would hardly be a couple of eccentrics who want to smell these flowers, or pick them for their lady of the heart.
Two-story toilet type "toilet"
I'm even afraid to ask what's going on in the head of the creator of this toilet? The only thing I have no doubt about is that it refers to "management" and not "workers." After all, judging by the picture, the management goes to the toilet on the second floor, and the workers - on the first.
Of course, this is a joke, rather, reflecting the reality of labor relations in large corporations. And similar cartoons were found in the notorious magazine "Crocodile" many years ago.
Well, let's wish the author more attentive managers if he is a worker, or be more attentive to workers if he is a manager.
Danish Idea outdoor toilets- Urilift
The design of these toilets is such that during the day they hide underground and do not interfere with pedestrians walking along the street, and at night they rise to the surface. These toilets are designed to deal with urination on the street. The design of these toilets is extremely simple. Their body is made of stainless steel, and apart from the urinal, nothing is provided, not even a door.
One of the advantages of this toilet is that there is nothing to break in it. That is, street hooligans will not be able to damage it.
As noted in the city administrations of the cities that have introduced these toilets, the streets have become noticeably cleaner. We would have.
The imagination of designers knows no bounds. And even the industrial and interior designers did not disregard the toilet theme. And it seems that they managed to find golden mean between interesting appearance and functionality. However, see for yourself.
1. Vertebrae
Created by Design Odyssey Ltd., the Vertebrae toilet is a real Swiss jackknife in the world of toilets. It consists of seven rotating modules stacked on top of each other and attached to a central post. The only fixed element is the toilet at the bottom, and in addition, you will immediately have access to the washbasin and a bunch of everything you can think of. Interestingly, in the lower section with the toilet there are doors behind which it is stored toilet paper.
2. Public urinals on a glass wall
In September 2016, the first tourists who saw the new glass-walled toilets at the Ecopark in Changsha, China, hesitated to use them. As a result, the Chinese had to put frosted glass partitions between the urinals and put a mirror coating on the glass.
3. Play urinals
British company Captive Media claims to have developed the world's first hands-free gaming console. It is built into the urinal, and everything that happens on the screen is supposed to be controlled by ... a jet directed into the urinal.
4. Golden Throne in Hong Kong
A company in Hong Kong created a toilet made of pure gold and precious stones, which is considered the most expensive in the history of mankind (according to information from the Guinness Book of Records, it costs $ 4.8 million). It was made not for sale, but purely for exhibition purposes in 2001.
5. "Doctor Toilet"
In one of the cafes in Bristol, the toilet was made in the form of a blue Tardis police box from Doctor Who. In its name, the consonance of the phrases in English "Doctor Who" and "Doctor Loo" (Doctor Who and Doctor Toilet) was beaten.
6. Vomiting toilet
It turns out that there is a similar special invention. You can see him at the Prague Club.
7. Urinal-flytrap
This is clearly not for the faint of heart. The creation of San Francisco artist Clark Sorensen is a fully functional urinal with sharp spikes and a hefty price tag of $11,500.
8. Writing tree
Dutch designer Sam van Veleu found interesting way solve the problem of queues to the toilets during various events, festivals and concerts under open sky. He created urinals that can be tied directly to trees.
9. Aquarium toilet
The cistern in this toilet is divided into 2 compartments. In one of them - ordinary water for flushing, and in the second (on the front side) - beautiful aquarium with backlight.
10. Toilet sink
The combined toilet-sink is one of the better ways make the house environmentally friendly, without compromising the style of the interior and minimizing the space occupied by the toilet. They communicate with each other, and the water that was used to wash the hands can be used to flush the toilet.
11. Glass toilet
A fully transparent toilet looks stylish without a doubt. Exactly as long as you do not relieve the need.
And not so long ago. The future is near.

Most of us never give importance to the toilets they use. However, sometimes the lack of a toilet can cause tragedy. So, in India, due to the fact that the house was not equipped with a toilet, a 17-year-old girl committed suicide. There are other extremes as well. There are eccentrics who are no longer satisfied with the usual "white friend", they prefer to relieve themselves only in designer creations.
In Dumka district, Jharkhand state (India), a 17-year-old student local school committed suicide. was that her parents refused to build a toilet at home. After the incident, one of the members of the Indian Parliament through social networks urged Indians to make sewerage and toilets in their homes a priority.
For contrast, it is worth looking at those who, as they say, are "mad with fat", as soon as they do not excel in equipping their own toilets.
Toilet seat
