Designed by the notable architects Wikinson Eyre – who were also responsible for the great Gateshead Millennium Bridge – these stainless steel pods, shining silver both inside and out, proudly proclaim the wonders of 21st century sanitary design.
The mechanised flushing toilet was invented in England in the 1600s – when it was rejected as too ‘alarming’ – but by the late 1800s Britain’s toilets, both private and public, were famed world wide for their innovation and design. After subsequent years of sad decline, when all style, inventiveness and beauty went down the drain, now, at the dawn of the new century, Britain is once again at the forefront of innovative toilet design. No better beacons of excellence, could be found nationwide than with these stainless steel pods. Tube Lines' leads the lavatorial way!!!
