SHOWER OF THE FUTURE
Improving everyday life by recycling water and energy, while enabling superior hygiene and comfort.
What began as an academic collaboration project between Lund University and NASA Johnson Space Center, inspired the Industrial Designer Mehrdad Mahdjoubi to create a design which applies the same principle you live by in Space; that Earthly resources should be used in the most efficient way possible.
Designed with a closed loop recycling and purification system, SHOWER OF THE FUTURE makes comfortable showering possible with only 5 litres of water, resulting in up to over 90% water savings and 80% energy savings compared to conventional showers.
Furthermore, since the shower uses a patented purification system, it guarantees filtration of viruses and bacterias such as legionella, which makes it successful to be used in regions where individuals have no access to a clean water supply. Combining remarkable resource savings and reduced household costs with superior user comfort, hygiene and design, ORBITAL SYSTEMS’ shower will help build a more environmentally sustainable future.
