The University of
Johannesburg
scoops the prize
of ‘Most promising
institute’.
Badenhorst said the judges commended all the entrants
for the great innovation they showed in designing within
minimal spaces, and for the brilliant mix of materials and
finishes used. “It was incredible to see the consideration
that went into rethinking the functionality and the use of
a public restroom. The designs were all of a very high
standard.”
Sharp said Naudé’s entry was a timeless and simple
copper shower design, while Tshabalala’s urinal design
(which required a lot of research) was well executed
and presented. “The runner-up designs were also very
impressive. Gibbens designed a hands-free tap with a
smart mirror, which we thought perfectly summed up
what a public restroom experience should be: easy, quick
and hands-free. The grey water system designed by
Roxanne Ilbury and Ingrid Jones impressed us with its
beautiful minimal, yet trendy design.”
The Salone del Mobile Milano Trade Fair is one of the
world’s best design trade fairs. “There will be great
networking opportunities for our winners and, of course,
they’re going to see first-hand the standard of work
being produced on the international stage,” Badenhorst
says. The runners-up and the University of Johannesburg
each won R10 000. PA
