With the aim of displaying six real size bathrooms we decided to design each of them inspired to a human type – the family, the intellectual couple, the ecologist couple, the designer, the manger, the fashion addict – thus creating the conditions to imagine and represent taste and inclinations of the owner/s. Combining the different bathrooms we gave shape to an architectonic place characterized by a urban feel and organized around a central courtyard. White smooth day-lighting coming from the backlit ceiling, wide informal seating steps and vertical grids of greenery were the features of this exterior-like space intended as a lounge area. Contrasting with the linear Cartesian geometry of the spaces, the visual design brought in a bit of pop irony, using handwritten font and contrasting bright colors as attracting visual elements
