Designer Tommaso Colia has an [eco-friendly shower design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-bathroom-design) that will force you to get out when you take too long and waste much water. The **eco_drop** shower features beautiful concentric circles that will rise to force you to stop showering when you take too long, and accordingly [save water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flo-smart-water-monitor).

I think this design should be used in gyms and [public showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/showerclear). People take longer when the resources are free, this will help cut that down.
