I-Save is a bathroom concept that save space as well as water in your bathroom. Bathroom is usually neglected space in the overall plan of residences, with that problem in mind, the designers are trying to create a bathroom concept that save space and water as well. I-SAVE combines the lavatory, the basin and the bath as a single unit in order to save space, while it’s still maximizing its use.
I-SAVE bathroom concept reuses the water from showers and hand washing for flushing the lavatory. Do you know that people typically use 5-10 litres of water per minute during showering ?
