Nature Calls


Imagine being in the great outdoors on a camping trip and stumbling upon this modern day sanctuary of an outhouse. Such was my delight when I found this unexpected environment in a predictable space, during The Gladstone Hotel's "Come up to my Room" design exhibit in Toronto this past weekend.


Canadian artists Laura McKibbon & Jasna Sokolovic have created a visually stunning restroom which plays on our conceptions of sharing private space with nature. Just watch out for the bird poo.

February Haiku






down the hill we go

twirling backwards spinning fast

soft snowy landing
