When I was in college, my freshman year was spent living in a dorm that was commonally referred to as “the toilet bowl.” It was a curved min-highrise that cradled a round main floor and cafeteria. Of course, no one told me this when I was still in highschool, picking out my housing. If they had, I may have made another choice. But imagine building yourself a home that intentionally looks like a commode? That’s what this man in South Korean has done, and he’s getting a tone of attention for it. The building’s unveiling is a part of the World Toilet Association’s World Toilet Summit next month, which is hoping to improve worldwide hygiene. Now that’s a conference I can definitely skip… though at least you’ll always know where the ladies room is! — Angela M.
