World’s First Bio-Material Toilet

Discreet and elegant, the Block is the world’s first bio-material toilet—made from a mixture of wood chips and resin. Produced by Finnish interiors brand Woodio and designed by Pentagram, the toilet eschews porcelain (which carries a larger carbon footprint) for an innovative wood that’s highly durable and waterproof. The Block is expected to last 10 to 15 years with the possibility of surviving up to 50 when cared for correctly. Alongside a sleek hidden mount, the toilet features a speckled design that reveals its natural and innovative composition. The resulting expression is warm and organic yet modern.
