# Humorous Tech Toilets The iPoo Toilet Has a Toilet Seat Thinner than a MacBook Air By Michael Hines | Published 2012-01-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipoo-toilet References: [designbuzz](http://www.designbuzz.com/apple-enthusiasts-revel-pooping-inspired-ipoo-toilet.html) & [milosparipovic](http://milosparipovic.com/index.php/ipoo-toilet/) Serbian designer Milos Paripovic has designed the iPoo Toilet as a tongue-in-cheek shot at Apple and its electronics. The iPoo Toilet is an ultra-modern toilet designed to cost twice as much as regular toilets while performing the exact same functions. The designer's words, not mine. For those of you who don't know, Milos Paripovic was the man who jokingly redesigned the famously bad automobile the Yugo as the Zugo EV. The Zugo was meant to be a joke, but it somehow managed to capture fifth place in a car design contest. The iPoo Toilet was designed in the same vein, although I doubt it will garner any awards. The iPoo Toilet has the shape of Apple's logo when closed and opened and features a toilet seat "thinner than a MacBook Air." Even the biggest tech companies in the world are not immune to criticism. It's nice to see someone calling out a major company in such a creative and fun way. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Humorous Home Decor:** The iPoo Toilet satirizes Apple's design and provides an opportunity for other designers to inject humor and satire into home decor items. - **Tech-inspired Bathroom Appliances:** The iPoo Toilet utilizes technology-inspired motifs to provide a new avenue for designers to integrate tech themes into practical household fixtures. - **Social Media-friendly Design:** The iPoo Toilet's eye-catching design and humorous take on a household item could inspire new designs that prioritize shareability on social media platforms. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Furnishings:** The iPoo Toilet highlights the potential for home furnishings to incorporate pop culture references and technology-inspired motifs. - **Bathroom Appliance Manufacturing:** The iPoo Toilet indicates the potential for manufacturers of bathroom appliances to experiment with creative designs and unique brand personalities. - **Graphic Design and Marketing:** The iPoo Toilet demonstrates the potential for graphic designers and marketers to leverage humor and satire in their campaigns and generate buzz for new products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Brutalist Smart Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/formation-02.md) - [Smart Toilet Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-toilets.md) - [Inflatable Portable Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airpot.md) - [Artfully Sculptured Textured Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-formation-02.md) - [Luxury Mobile Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-mobile-toilet.md) - [AI-Powered Poop-Tracking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tushy-launched-hindsight.md) - [Feature-Packed Smart Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neolet.md) - [Compact Portable Toilet Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-toilets.md) - [Illuminated Public Artful Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiroo-east-park.md)
