EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, titled "Toilet / Loos (TWYFORDs UNITAS combining W.C. basin, urinal and slop sink, avoiding the wetting so objectionable in Closets having permanent seats)," offers a glimpse into the history of sanitation and design innovation. Dated back to 1888, the image showcases a unique bathroom fixture, which was marketed under the name "Unitas" by an unknown manufacturer, not to be confused with the Twyfords Sanitary Company. The UNITAS design revolutionized the concept of the water closet, or toilet, by combining a W.C. basin, urinal, and slop sink into one compact and functional unit. The W.C. basin, located on the right side of the image, is a traditional toilet bowl with a wooden seat and a handle for flushing. The urinal, situated in the middle, features a trough-like design with a drain at the bottom, allowing for efficient and hygienic use. The slop sink, located on the left, is a washbasin with a drain, intended for hand washing and the disposal of wastewater. The UNITAS design aimed to address the objectionable wetting that was common in closets with permanent seats, making it a significant improvement in the realm of sanitation and hygiene. This innovative combination of fixtures was a step towards the modern bathrooms we know today and demonstrates the evolution of design and functionality in response to the needs of the time. The photograph itself is a fascinating historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the ingenuity and creativity of the designers and manufacturers of the late 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the importance of continuous innovation and the role it plays in shaping our daily lives.
