AND TO THE HEART OF THINGS. Not so very long ago, the bathroom was a place that you designed in a sober manner and visited as briefl y as possible. It was frequently referred to simply as the “wet room“ and as such, it lived up to its name. Today, things are very different. Today, the bathroom is the place where we can be at one with ourselves, where we relish a moment away from the daily hustle and bustle. The bathroom is still a place of cleansing, but one that refreshes body and soul alike, quite as a matter of course. People who want to give themselves a treat choose a bathroom that is a treat in itself. And those who want to treat themselves to something really special, choose one from Duravit. We manufacture high-quality products for the bathroom, created by the best designers and fi tted with technical solutions that are both, smart and convenient. We generate a sustained sense of wellbeing in the bathroom with materials and designs that are made to last. An overview of our sanitary ceramics, bathroom furniture, showers and bathtubs, pool and wellbeing systems, accessories and shower-toilet seats can be found from page 098. At the beginning of our remodelled Badmagazin, you will fi nd lots of inspiration for bathroom designs which are both aesthetic and pleasant. WELCOME TO DURAVIT. badmagazin 003 SIDE GLANCES D.1 FOTOSTUDIO, MUNICH Some people sing in the bath. Others have their very best ideas in the shower. And others reach for a pencil and paintbrush, like the French illustrator Serge Bloch, who transformed a whole “Starck“ bathroom including the bathtub into a masterpiece right there and then. What can we learn from this? A bathroom is what we make of it – and it can even be a genuine work of art. 004 badmagazin badmagazin 005 SIDE GLANCES D.2 IT HOUSE, JOSHUA TREE PARK, CALIFORNIA In the middle of the Joshua Tree Park, where temperatures reach 40° Celsius in summer, the designer team Talmaan/Koch created an intelligent and effi cient living pavilion. The Duravit bathroom faces towards the cool inner yard and thereby offers even more refreshment. www.duravit.com/ithouse 006 badmagazin badmagazin 007 SIDE GLANCES D.3 FOGO ISLAND, NEWFOUNDLAND (CANADA) Gleaming white and clearly defi ned on the outside, homely and comfortable on the inside: Like a geometrically cut boulder, the Fogo Island Inn rests between the rock formations of the small island of Fogo off the Newfoundland coast. Saunders Architecture and Sheppard Architects Inc from Newfoundland created this guesthouse in the barren coastal landscape between the moors and the sea. Also part of the project: SensoWash® from Duravit. www.duravit.com/fogoisland 008 badmagazin badmagazin 009 SIDE GLANCES D.4 APARTMENT, HONG KONG As life in the city becomes more popular, space is getting scarcer. For this 32 m2 Hong Kong apartment, architect Gary Chang has constructed a unique system of sliding walls, which creates a variety of options for the utilization of space. www.duravit.com/garychang 010 badmagazin badmagazin 011 SIDE GLANCES D.5 TOWNHOUSE DUOMO Everything is extraordinary: Staying at the TownHouse Duomo hotel is like residing in a shopping mall. But not just in any shopping mall - the more than 130-year-old Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is one of the most noble that Italy’s fashion capital Milan has to offer.

(HTTPS://TWITTER.COM/CRITICASIANSTDS) CAS (/) nav=toclist) 2019.24: Ben Whaley: What I Write About When I Write About Gaming DECEMBER 3, 2019 I am about twenty-five hours into The World Ends with You, a Japanese role-playing game about a socially-withdrawn teenager who inhabits an afterlife modeled on Tokyo’s youth district Shibuya, when I am thrust into yet another random battle against a group of pink jellyfish monsters. How I hate these jellyfish! They clone themselves when attacked and quickly multiply to overtake your screen. Having already bested this frustrating enemy multiple times during the last hour of play, I sigh and put down my Nintendo DS portable system. Despite what my colleagues and students might think, playing videogames for academic research is indeed hard work! Even if you don’t actively play videogames, you’ve likely heard the argument that classic Japanese games such as Space Invaders (1978) and Donkey Kong (1981) revitalized the North American gaming industry as it stood on the brink of collapse in the 1980s. These games, and others like it, continue to occupy a central place alongside manga (print comics) and animation within Japan’s transmedia ecosystem. Videogames are a pretty big deal in Japan: each year, over 250,000 people attend the annual Tokyo Game Show; Wi-Fi hotspots in Tokyo’s Akihabara electronics district allow passersby to download limited-edition content for their favorite portable games; Mario and Luigi appear on video quiz shows regularly broadcast throughout Tokyo subway cars; and the interactive urinal videogame developed by Sega known as Toylets (2011) even lets men compete in different mini games based on the volume and intensity of their pee.

  • Improving Health and Learning Through Better Water, Sanitation and Hygiene in Schools
    Improving health and learning through better water, sanitation and hygiene in schools AN INFORMATION PACKAGE FOR SCHOOL STAFF Abstract Access to safe and reliable water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) is a critical precondition for providing a safe school environment that supports equal opportunities for high-quality education and healthy development of children. To create WASH-friendly and health-promoting schools, common problems beyond the provision of proper WASH infrastructure – such as toilets and taps – need to be addressed. Operation and maintenance, education and persisting taboos, such as talking about toilet use and menstrual hygiene matters, need to be tackled. This information package offers practical support for school staff on how to address common WASH problems and deliver improvements at the school level, alongside pupils and the entire school community. It will help schools strengthen health education and implement whole-school policies that promote the health, well-being and dignity of pupils and school staff, making every school a health-promoting school.
