People often think of design as something extra, an adornment to the everyday features of their lives, but [Toto's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toto) 'The Art of Everyday' exhibition aims to prove that mellifluous design and efficacious pragmatism need not exist in parallel worlds. The exhibition is on display as part of [Clerkenwell Design Week](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3daysofdesign-2025), and it showcases the latest home products from the iconic Japanese bathroom brand.

The Art of Everyday coincides with Toto's [100th anniversary](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiptoe-10-years), and it is an appropriate indicator of how far the brand has come in that time. It features display products as well as photographs representing different domestic activities: from bathing to sleeping to cooking and eating. Those photos were curated by industrial designer David Tonge, who also provided annotations on the rest of the display.
