The design of this toilet makes it look like a temple and what it adores is

The design of this toilet makes it look like a temple and what it adores is the "cycle of nature".

Designer Aigars Lauzis and his Zeltini design team created a toilet called Bioloo .

It has a very simple design: a composting toilet, encased inside a small wooden room, using fertilizer to fertilize the rooftop garden, which will provide a floral scent for the user to smell everyday.

The design envisions the concept of this toilet as a " place to rest, recharge and release unwanted things".

And its listed price on the website is about 3,000 Euro, equivalent to 3,365 USD.
