Believe it or not, before these black marble urinals were installed, the glass windows were the urinal. There is a unique drainage system (not clearly seen in the photograph) that enabled men to stand in front of the windows and urinate without spillage.
- John Michael Kohler Arts Center Sheboygan, WI More
New York Artist Matt Nolen created this work on commission. These three urinals, as well as three sinks, two stalls and all the walls of the restroom depict changing architecture styles from ancient Egypt to current time on one wall. The rulers of each period are depicted along the other wall. The restrooms at the Art Center were featured on the Discovery Channel’s program, ‘The World’s Ten Best Bathrooms.’ This urinal is named ‘Lord.’ 8. International Space Station Space More
Crewmembers will spend up to six months in space, eating, sleeping, excercising, and practicing hygiene. They will also conduct scientific and technological experiments that require the weightless, “micro-gravity” environemnt of an orbit around the Earth. Space on the HabLab is very limited. Fortunately, in a weightless environment there are no floors and ceilings, and every surface becomes useful. Equipment is designed to be as small as possible, and fits together snugly to minimize unused space 7. Stockholm-Arlanda Airport Sweden More
The solution is a combination of design, art and function. The purpose is to show a beautiful part of the swedish nature in the contrast of concrete and airplains. All hidden in the wish of better smell. Big sheets of glass reduce the gaps – and the odour. Swedes are the most travelling people in the world and Stockholm-Arlanda Airport is one of the biggest airports in Scandinavia.

Because of those reasons, not more than 700 ‘She-inals’ were sold before Urinette, the company that manufactured it, sold the manufacturing rights.
