About Versus Choo
Maisha yetu sio kutafuta mwisho wa raha na faraja. Kila mtu wetu anajaribu kupata usawa bora kati ya utendaji na muundo na ikiwa tunataka bidhaa hiyo kuwa ya kiuchumi ambayo inafanya kuwa ngumu zaidi. Pamoja na wc yangu iliyounganika karibu nilikuwa najaribu kupata haswa usawa huu. Inachanganya mbinu na teknolojia mpya za kuongeza ufanisi, kuokoa maji na vifaa na wakati huo huo vitu vyote vizuri vimefichwa chini ya muundo wa ujasiri, monolith na uchoraji.

- The very first idea was to create something that has shape of the first letter of my name - V (the profile of the wc and the shape of internal tank). It was eventually changed because of functional reasons.
- Project Duration
- Almost one year, location - Bulgaria, Europe
- Operation Flow
- This close-coupled WC have tilted tank which allows the water to flush out easily than traditional 90 deg tanks. This modification increases the velocity, presure and force of the water. The WC also have 3 flush volumes which allow to use water more efficient.
The puzzle type seat and cover allow to reduce unnecessary overlaping which saves material. - Team Members
