Smart mirrors might advise the clueless what to wear in the morning, skin scanners might find the most effective beauty products, toilets might eliminate urine tests, and bioprinting might help cosmetics companies discontinue animal testing. Technology will significantly re-shape our sanctuaries for hygiene, and to see how it will happen, we looked at the latest trends. Here’s an overview of what the bathroom of the future will look like.
How old do you estimate the modern bathroom, everyone’s favorite space for singing? Did you know that 150 years ago most people lived without running water or electricity in their homes? Did you know that although the godson of Queen Elizabeth I invented the flushing lavatory, its use only spread around from the second half of the 19th century?
The bathroom as we know it today is a relatively new concept. For centuries, people went to public bathing houses, used tin tubs in front of kitchen fires and did what they had to do in every comfortable room – or outdoors. As a comparison, today’s bathrooms are meticulously tiled, clean sanctuaries of hygiene where some spend even more time than exercising.
