RUBBiSH ReFlow

Specializing in modern, innovative, and sustainable architecture and design, award-winning, Santa Monica-based design studio, Minarc, delivers yet another form of function.

With a philosophy focused on innovative design solutions, building techniques and unique use of materials, Minarc introduces the RUBBiSH ReFlow. Its streamlined design is focused on sustainability and functionality. A rubber sheet is stretched over a long base frame and anchored by a drain at the end. Water disperses down a gently sloped surface, guided by the natural topology created by the sheet, and drains directly into a toilet. This allows for the water to be reused by repurposing the greywater from hand-washing to flush the toilet. Not only does this give the opportunity of using only one plumbing system, it also cultivates an automatic and continuous conservation of water.
