WC, where the same without him

First prototype toilet were found during excavations near the coast of Scotland: a small indentation in the stone walls, is connected to the gutters, which is about 5000 years. Ancient civilizations were famous for their sophisticated sewage systems. It is believed that the Chinese more than 2000 thousand years ago, invented the world's first toilet. I wonder what is the direct administration of the premise for the natural needs, or water closet. Arranged in the house, usually behind the bathroom, she vybelivalas lime or carried out in a tree. " Initially, all the "equipment" was a box of bricks. In wealthy homes seats in toilets also were laid brick and later clay stool replace wooden seat. At different times in different nations or a toilet connected to sewage system, or was a kind of "autonomous system", ie capacity, which periodically had to clean up. In the private homes of ancient Greece and Rome were quite common washroom on the second floor, where waste products merged into sewer drains. The interior of the toilet remained extremely austere. And this despite the fact that sewage was still the prerogative of the propertied class. In poorer homes the interior of the toilet did not think at all - there were satisfied with the pots. Widely known fact about the appearance of the first public toilet in ancient Rome. I wonder if that has already been made to trim a room with marble or ceramic tiles. Were not uncommon and decorative painting: in addition to purely utilitarian purpose room toilet was beginning to acquire the art features and individual look. Under the seats of Roman toilet is a special system of pipes, which merged sewage into sewers or sewers. Incidentally, the famous Roman drain - cloaca maxima (about 500 BC. E.) Exists in the eternal city and to this day. From vases to the pot in the Middle Ages treated the usual pots, which were put under the bed, and their contents simply splashed onto the street. Even in the Renaissance, despite the rapid development of engineering and as a consequence, the high pace of construction of sewerage systems, night vase remained a subject is extremely popular. Moreover, the ordinary pot gained the status of works of art: made of high quality earthenware, decorated with murals and decorated inlay. Of course, amid invented today by the British VIP-WC (Versatile Interactive Pan), which analyzes the health status of wastes, followed by their own records to the doctor orders the necessary dietary products in the local supermarket, the stories about the night a vase of a bygone era, of course, seem to be fairy tales. But who knows, perhaps tiring of the endless search for perfection and the ideal form of the pot, designers, the day after tomorrow in tandem with the engineers giving the toilet of the future functions of which today we do not even suspect. And then our modern toilet may seem to someone such as "Paleolithic". Dressing Room Once the concept of "toilet" was interpreted as a premise for making the toilet, that is to clean up their appearance. Toilets were required attribute houses wealthy class. As a rule, women's restrooms acts as a boudoir, where the lady washed, dressed, combed his long hair, pinned jewelry, etc. Dressing Room in any case not associated with the place where the plumbing is designed to send natural needs. "The apartment I have, as you see, a bachelor, for one thing: the room, sitting room, dining room, study, another study, cloakroom toilet yes." Since the "common history" Igor Goncharov dressing room underwent serious changes. Today the toilet has become part of the universal toilet facilities (usually combining the bathroom sink and toilet), which at the same time continues to serve as a place where you can tidy himself up. Until now, separate WC and is purely an individual choice - any advice and recommendations on this point does not exist. No accounting for tastes: and now private houses equally equipped and facilities with neighboring bathroom and toilet, and separate toilet rooms, designed to carry only a certain ritual to the toilet and, as a rule, with a bidet. United by purpose room - bathroom and toilet rooms - are the cause of the bodily and spiritual purification. And in this sense they have much in common. Harmony under the drain, toilet today - truly a place of worship. Designers and architects have been actively involved in the process of creating a space, just as, if not more, essential for life. Toilet was in the spotlight trends promoted by fashionable galleries and salons. From general - the rejection of high-tech materials for the benefit of the natural transition from artificial to natural. Among the particulars - seashells and dried flowers, articles of textile and embers, fantastic combination and intertwining with ceramics, wood and glass. The decoration of a toilet room becomes habitual work master florist. Initiation into the mysteries of nature is the very close proximity to the toilet. Where natural materials are not only decorative but also highly useful function: specially selected floral arrangements, some take up permanent residence in the dressing-room, successfully absorb the local flavors. It is known that, using the laws of aroma and light therapy, can literally transform a space. Therefore, traditional live flowers in the toilet is often replaced with the compositions of flavored gems in the sand, use spices and other flavorings. Borrowed techniques and elements of eastern culture in combination with European elegance create harmonious in terms of feng shui space. Long experience of world manufacturers of plumbing is the key to creating an environment ideally suited to the concept of "functional". Decorative retreat, say in the form of items of jewelry, give the unique individuality of the toilet room. The basic idea - the rational use of even a small (one toilet and bidet ") space. And it is achieved thanks to the emergence of new models, knowledge and use of color-laws and svetovedeniya, bold experiments with space and materials. Riding on a star ... from ancient times out of fashion does not come out the main types of finishing materials. Pottery, once only decorate the interior of the toilet, and even today is considered a prerequisite for optimum mode of operation the premises with water. For a small volume of rooms is recommended light-colored tiles, which visually enhances the space. In other cases, a good bright, saturated colors. In fashion the large tile and tile bright colors with geometric pattern, or imitating the texture of natural materials - marble, stone. To the category of expensive floor finishes include exotic woods. But the protagonist of a toilet room - the toilet. In a fashion pendant, with a slim button on the wall for several modes of drainage water, and heated seats. White color is still a leader in the manufacture of toilets, but its monopoly infringe various colored faience. Today's binge toilets with decorative trim, probably originates from the fashion of the Renaissance, with its paintings and inlays. Powerful stream of producers, dumped on the market for "pot" products that can literally knock. Search of "his" turn the toilet long wanderings through the galleries and shops. To the category of public and most popular plumbing products is our immediate western neighbors - Finland and Sweden. Lower class - Czech bowls, democratic way to solve the dressing-room - domestic plumbing and Belarus. France and Britain are also making its modest contribution to the cause of the equipment of the Russian toilet. Albion, however, much has passed its position compared to, say, from the XIX century, when he held a leading position in global production of products for bathrooms and washrooms. Among the leaders are still legislator designer fashion - Italy. Not far behind, and Spain - the first country to launch serial production of toilets. Once was a pioneer company "Unitas", which, in fact, gave its name is so important to life, "toilet articles".
