Create a mini eco-system at the comfort of your own bathroom using Jun Yasumoto’s Phyto-Purification, a natural filtering principle for your bathroom. Every time a household member uses the bathroom, the use water from the shower and the washbasin will be filtered first to the organic system before being recycled. Jun’s Phyto-purification is a natural way of recycling water, and is commonly used in ecological purification systems. This creation is great in keeping your bathroom green. However, I am not sure if this prevents those wildlife creatures to live in your bathroom as well. However, the idea itself is great.

Recycling is a great move in saving our environment from the harm a growing landfill brings. Designers from Arkitip Intel have created different furniture from recycled wood, and most of them are looking great. They have made a stylish chair, stool, cabinet, bench, wood planks, and more. If everybody on earth will have the heart of recycling his or her old furniture, there is no need to add bulk of trash to our landfill. If you do not like the idea of having multiple colors in a single furniture, you can have it painted with some eco-friendly paints. It will bring less harm to the environment and to our children and their future children.

The Nunatak Sarl Architects erected another prefabricated house at the L’Ardevaz Mountain. The look of the house is quite amazing and off-balanced but always has a purpose. The sloppy roof for example is n total harmony with the east and west side of the mountain.
The house was erected using an eco-friendly prefabricated wood framework with another eco feature like the passive heating. The interior has an interior coating of painted wood particle and was protected from outside heat with an insulation coat. The house’s gray concrete flooring has an integrated heating system.
In addition, this cozy Zufferey house also has terrace and garden placed on the ear and south sides of the home to protect the residents from western winds and the summer sun’s hot temperature.

We have here a nice submission from the Netherland-based designer Gert Eussen. After the nice Coco Hut was featured here in Igreenspot, here comes another worth featuring creation from the eco-designer, and it is called as the Eco-Parasol.
“Recently it’s been very hot in Holland, and as you might know, we have an extreme shortage of shadow due to our flat and open country. The polders feel like deserts with temperatures of 30 degrees Celsius.
I am not the kind of person who runs out to the first store and buy an conventional and non-attractive parasol. Therefore, I went into my workshop and came up with the following.
The idea is that you do not move your chair but adjust the canopy. Therefore, I needed a flexible structure. However, even more important I want to create (as always) something unique and sustainable. I looked for some basic materials in my workplace that were not used or were left over and gathered them to see what I could come up with.
Voila, there it was the 3-4 shade. The structure is made of a branch not suitable for the industry. (What the loggers throw away) An old sheet, a handy mom and bamboo sticks.
The trick is that the holes have to be in the right spot in order to achieve its ‘flexibility’ and of course, the rights angle in the triangle wings. This took me quite a while to figure out all in all, me and my family enjoy the fine weather now but with the ability to take shelter in the shade, no matter where the sun is.”
