About Versus 廁所

我們的生活是對快樂和舒適的永無止境的追求。我們每個人都試圖在功能和設計之間找到最佳平衡，如果我們希望產品經濟實惠，這將使它變得更加困難。與我緊密耦合的wc，我試圖找到這種平衡。它結合了提高效率，節省水和材料的新方法和新技術，同時所有這些好東西都隱藏在大膽，整體和奢華的設計之下。

Unique Properties: Extravagant design combined with higher efficiency and economy
Dimensions & Packaging: Length - 400mm, Projection - 775mm, Height - 790mm
Tags: Versus, V-shape, Close-Coupled, WC, Toilet, Black, Red, Extravagant, Bathroom
Production Technology: Live tests will allow us to understand which material will be better - Ceramic or Acrylic. Maybe other materials will be tested too.
Design Challenge: Maintain the original V-shape during technical and ergonomic transformations.
Research: During the CAD build a lot of fluid analysis were studied, a specialist was asked for consultancy.
Inspiration: 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.
