Green Shower, No Grime
It’s not called “Green” for the amount of green it gets rid of in your shower, but for the niceness it inflicts upon the environment. This “Green Shower” by Rami Tareef takes into account the amount the potential liters and liters of water wasted by showers and fixes it with this design using two very simple modifications.
1. A flexible LCD screen that notifies the user as to the temperature of the water. Silly? Nay! Lots and LOTS of people turn the shower on and wait for it to reach optimum heat. In this process is the liter waster. Be more precise with this right here.
2. A 24V DC generator to make use of the water as it flows from your water supply. Might as well do double good with that water as long as it’s flowing on your dime, right?
3. I lied, there’s three things. The third thing is that it looks amazing. Generally “non-traditional” shower fixtures look rather gaudy, if I do say so myself. This is nice. Look at that bathwater waterfall at the bottom! So pretty.

Good concept, but woman drawn terribly…
Confucius says
haha true, It was the first thing I learnt to draw?
Robert says
i definitely agree on the ”litter water part” cause i leave the water running till i get my right temp before i jump in…
Bauski says
I don’t fully understand the part with the generator yet. I mean I know the principle but I don’t get how it works in this particular concept o.O

I have designed showers in the past for a well known global company and if I am not mistaken it is illegal to draw power from the running water. Certainly this is true in the UK. It might pay to find out what the rest of the world lets you do.
Its a shame as we had many a good idea during a brainstorming session that would use the power generated by moving water.
Nice CAD renderings but I do agree you should possible redraw the Shadow woman (pixeley bums never look good).

The shadow is terrible. The concept is alright.
Mike says
Great concept…the concept is to get your girlfriend to finally get that boob job you’ve been alluding to, right?

Great styling! I’d love one of those in my shower.

But… “Lots and LOTS of people turn the shower on and wait for it to reach optimum heat” because as far as I know that’s the only way to get your hot water from the water heater to your shower. What am I missing? How does this eliminate the necessity of getting rid of cold water already in the pipes? Why use an LCD panel, and especially why use a flexible LCD panel in a flat area of the product?
Why not just touch the water with your hand?
Looks nice, though. Not that many people I know went with the “spaceship” theme when decorating their bathroom.

You know optimum heat faster because seeing how hot it is is better than feeling it. You know a whole lot faster.
