I have been delighted to participate in the Bathroom Blogfest 2007.
The event is coming to an end but I came across this TrendHunter article - that is not necessarily about customer experience or bathroom's per se...but loved the idea as it illustrates the power of design today and illustrates the power of creating a personal brand that stands out from the crowd...Here is a man who has built a house in the shape of a toilet!
"Mr. Sim, who is 74 years old, was born in a toilet and plans to live in the house until he dies.
“It was intentional. My mother followed advice from my grandmother that
people born in restrooms will enjoy long lives,’’ he said. “Toilets
were once regarded as stinking and dirty places. Not any more. They
must be treated as the sanctuary that protects human health.”
SIM Jae-Duck was born in a toilet and now he plans to live and die in one - a $US1.6 million ($1.8m) toilet-shaped house designed to promote his tireless campaign for cleaner loos worldwide. Mr Sim will open what is billed as the world's one and only toilet house on November 11 to mark the launch of his World Toilet Association"

OK, this one floored me. We work on renovating bathrooms...but usually from the inside. Wrapping the bathroom around the house has to be the most innovative bathroom renovation I have ever seen. lol
In a month or two, we will be kicking off our own blog at http://www.serviceblocks.ca/blog/ . Mind if we blog about this post?
