TALK about best seat in the house! In yet another Japanese stroke of genius, several ski resorts throughout the country have decorated the toilet walls, door and floor with a vision from a ski jumper’s point-of-view. So even when you’re caught short in the loo, you still aren’t missing out on any of the on-mountain action. With interactivity in mind, from the seated position you can look down at your feet in skis, and the intimidatingly steep ski jump ahead.

Japan’s toilet facilities are infamous for their high-tech gadgetry ranging from seat warmers and air deodorisers to jet-washers. Energy drink company Georgia Max Coffee came up with the idea to advertise their product in the WCs with the artwork. The toilet paper holder carried the only ‘Engrish’ subtle brand messaging in the cubicle: ‘Seriously kick-ass intensely sweet for the real coffee super-zinging unstoppable Max! Taste-explosion!’. These artistic, snow-themed innovations are truly all about piste and big dumps in every sense of the words!
