The whole shower is like a glass go-go cage designed to make you feel like you're washing yourself for other peoples' enjoyment, but in a classy, design-centric sort of way. It's definitely smaller than a traditional shower/tub combo, but all that glass is going to be rough to clean. [Trendir via Dvice]

Well it could be used for your crotch if you are tall enough, or you have a weirdly high crotch with a weirdly short torso. Either way, it's a sweet-looking fixture with a lot of options. [Hansa via Trendir]

Seriously though, somewhere in this image is an outdoor shower that heats water up to 140 degrees in two hours using solar power. Of course, now all you can think about is a cold shower right? Well, the product page will bring you crashing back down with the imagery conjured up by the following line:

"you and your family can take several showers consecutively before the tank needs to reheat."

That is so wrong. [Herrington viaRed Ferret via DVICE]

This thing controls music streamed wirelessly via Bluetooth, lighting in your shower and even (who'd have imagined) what kind of water is raining down on you. It even has a Scottish Shower mode, which I had to look up to find out that it meant alternating hot and cold water spray. [Hansgrohe via Trendir via DVice]

The Flipside has four separate modes, which you pick from by simply flipping the shower head like a coin, instead of trying to grab that annoying ring most adjustable showerheads use:

•Koverage – for a traditional, everyday shower with maximum water coverage that is perfect for
the morning shower routine
• Kotton – streams a layer of dense, soft, enveloping downpour of relaxation that caresses your
skin
• Komotion – a drenching spray that delivers an exhilarating, circular pattern to refresh the senses
after a tightly-wound day
• Kurrent – provides a focused and invigorating massage spray to target tired or aching muscles

And obviously you can re-purpose the modes for whatever else you can think of. My mom said the first thing she always did when she moved in somewhere new was replace the crappy showerhead, so maybe this isn't the worst time ever to sell this thing, at least to people taking advantage of the real estate crash to buy new digs.

Update: Apparently, it's going to have a list price of $107, meaning you can find it for even cheaper. [Kohler]

My approach to design can sometimes appear shockingly radical but I have got different reasons to legitimize that. An alarm clock is not what we can call a pleasurable object. It is often even painful to be awoken by it. However it is a necessary object, which regulates our lives and the society. That's what I call the "design for pain and for our own good". Some of my designs seem to constrain people, acting like an alarm clock, awaking people to the consciousness of their behavior and giving them limits. People often need an external signal to behave more. In France the government added thousands of new radars on the roads to fight excessive speed. And it worked: there are far less people killed on the roads of France today. I call it "design of threat and punishment" and I use it as an educational tool.

Yeah, she's not fooling around here. If you don't wrap things up in a timely fashion the curtain will inflate until you are a naked, shivering prisoner in your own shower. By the looks of things, if you aren't careful the damn thing could completely cut off your air supply. Personally, I would rather go with the Eco-Drop Shower—the philosophy is the same but it's far less deadly. [MoCo Loco via DVICE]

You've tried pills. (ICK!) You've tried topical treatments. (OUCH!) You've even tried sacrificing your first child to Aphrodite in hopes of a hair blessing. (OOPS!)

Now, for just $90 (that's just ten payments of under $10) you can regrow the hair on top of your head (or anywhere else!). Japanese scientists have discovered that the root of all hair loss is the clogged hair pathways in your skin. This uniquely engineered rubber shower cap captures shower water in such a way that it steams your scalp, allowing hair through.

Operators are standing by, but they might not speak English. So you'd better just order this one through the website. [Hair Doctor via Tokyo Mango]

It has two handheld nozzles, mirrors, 8 side jets, a radio, an LCD TV, MP3 input, 6mm of tempered glass, a heater pump, steam generator, an alarm, 6 more jets, overhead lights, back accupuncture massage, a massage tub, towel racks, foot massage, ventilation fans and speakers. Considering that all this comes at a price of $4300, it's not that bad. I mean, if you were building a new bathroom anyway, you'd owe it to yourself to buy one. Seriously.

I especially like the guy talking on the phone while going at it on his desk. Multitasking! [PopGive]

That extra 1,000 pounds of water (25% more than usual) means the aircraft will have to carry more fuel, which may weigh heavy on your environmental conscience. Or maybe lying in your massage bed in the private first class room, with remote-control doors and mini bar will make you forget your woes. [Mail on Sunday]

The 2.6 gallon Pocket Shower sports a compact showerhead that operates with twisting on/off valve. Bathers can adjust the stream to produce a slow trickle, or open it up completely for a dousing 8-minute power shower. Want a warm shower for those cool, crisp camping mornings? Leave the black fabric out in the sun.

Alternatively, the Pocket Shower can also be used as a dry sack to transport clothes, a sleeping bag, or those aforementioned beauty products no self-respecting city slicker would be without on the open range. [Sea to Summit]

You see, in order to offer every first-class passenger a shower, the airline will have to add one metric tonne of water to its payload, dragging a carbon cost of around 50,000 lbs. per trip.

All part of the luxury experience, right? No one has seen photos of the upcoming A380 first-class cabin, but it is allegedly something on par with the "seven star" Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai, and that it makes Singapore Airlines' front end—with double beds and dining "environments"—look like a dog's backend.

Sure, an in-air shower might negatively impact the earth in catastrophic and irreversible ways, but think about it this way: the only people who will make use of it come from oil wealth, so they probably wouldn't give a shit to begin with! [Times UK via Luxurylaunches]

The tub not only has adjustable air massage jets for the ladies (and men), there's also an 8.5-inch LCD with remote control. Besides the 7 jets, 9 bubble jets, and 6 massage jets, it has underwater lights, a super-bass connection, padded headrest, and cable inputs so you can watch DVDs, Cable, or your closed circuit feed to the nanny's bedroom.

Best of all, unlike the other Kosmo, this one won't go around in a blind fury, calling people n*gg**s. – Jason Chen
