Next time somebody says their house is made of crap, they may be right. Bindeshwar Pathak, an Indian sanitation specialist, has found a way to make human waste into raw material that can be fashioned into doors and window frames. He dreams of opening a Poop Depot home improvement sotre. Twenty-one of his doors are now on display at the Lisson Art Gallery.  Having developed a durable raw material out of human waste, a collaboration of some Mexican designers birthed the first few door designs, and the result was apparently so impressive, they are now on display at the Lisson Art Gallery of London. The British relationship with India is obviously long-standing, but this celebration of art out of a toilet is a little too much for many media reps to handle
