I Want One---Water-saving Bath

You know how, sometimes, you’re standing around in the shower and don’t really need the water on? Especially if you’re becoming more aware of just how precious that water is. And yet, turning the water off and back on again is sometimes just more than you’re willing to do.

Here is the coolest water-saving device we’ve ever seen. The shower water is powered by touch-sensitive tiles; touch, and there’s water. Touch again, and you’re saving water.

But the best, coolest, most innovative thing is that the shower and sink water doesn’t just go down the drain, used once and then tossed into the riverways of your town. Instead, it’s recycled for use in the toilet. And all of this happens silently, behind-the scenes, so all you know is that you have a really cool-looking bathroom.

This is a really cool system! I really like the concept of touch, although it looks like it might be hard to leave such a cool bathroom! The overhead shower gives it a super modern look that says, "ever been to the moon and back? strap in."
