There are a few luxuries in life that, once introduced, consumers are less than eager to let go. Massaging jacuzzis may be one example of these, but the Da/Spa Shower at least makes the use of indulgent plumbing fixtures a more environmentally responsible practice.
Designer Victor M. Aleman strives to achieve this by integrating a process for recycling water within his round lavatory pod. All of the high-pressure jets within the curved walls create a massaging effect thanks to cleaned gray water from the appliance's own drain.
Promising a sophisticated system of H2O purification, temperature maintenance and the operation of its powerful "water bombs," the Da/Spa Shower lets one remain pampered beneath a cleansing downpour of just 20L. It would however be interesting to note of the eco-friendliness of this capsule in terms of electrical consumption.
