Since then I have become convinced that these toilets have a much bigger future. We can't continue using drinking water to flush away our waste, and we can't afford to keep wasting our waste; at some point soon these are going to be coming into our homes and offices. Don't laugh; already, if you want to build to the Living Building Challenge standard, they are pretty much the only way to go. That's why they are in the new Bullitt Center.

Makes sense in some ways being that people really do need those features. So we decided to offer an add on package for a shower room, and composting toilet, with a removable deck to tie it all together.” Here is a sketch up of the shower/toilet combo that they will be offering. The separate shower and composting toilet now available with The Gnomadik Micro Cottage.
