A friend of mine is an architect. His personal style is classy, understated and elegant, but he has to pander to the desires of his clients, obviously. In this day and age of gaudy McMansions, he is requested to do all sorts of insane things - one client even requested a huge gilded two seater swing hanging in their two story foyer. Eventually, he became so exasperated he decided to go a little crazy with his plans and throw in the most bizarre features he could imagine just to see what would happen. "Floating bathtub" mounted on clear pedestals - client loved it. Toilet encased in a raised throne - client loved it. Curved walls in a hallway to create the illusion of walking through a tube - you guessed it, they loved it.You know what? Curved walls would make cleaning so much easier. No more dust (or in my home, dog hair - and lots of it) accumulating in the non-existent corners.
He hates just about every job he has done, but he is in high demand and rolling in dough.
Though I would probably have some big problems when tipsy.
How can I get me one of them there toilet thrones, Sebastian?
