to be presented at the ISH trade fair in frankfurt from the 12th to 16th of march, 2013 is a pop-up bathroom concept, developed as part of a
trending forecast from the association of the german sanitation industry and the messe frankfurt. the campaign sees the fabrication of an inflatable
mobile pavilion that will tour from place to place promoting the benefits of a temporary, mobile bathroom.

the ‘bathroom bubble’ intends to represent freedom, an idea that was generated after surveying groups of people about what they see as their ‘dream bathroom’.
the committee found that many pollsters desired they’re porcelain throne to have a view of or access to a balcony or garden.
through implementing a thin, transparent membrane, the structure creates a portable living room-bathroom with a panoramic vista.
the pod can be placed among trees or on the roof of a building, nurturing a feeling of being ‘closer to nature’.

jens j. wischmann, managing director of the VDS, explains the focus of ‘pop up my bathroom’:

‘we believe they answer consumers’ need for more cosiness and relaxation, for environmentally aware behaviour and sensuous experiences,
as well as for a straightforward, self-determined way of life well into old age.’
