Aug 28 2007Zen Garden Sink Kills Plants in Style

Designer Jean-Michel Gauvreau has brought to us the Zen Garden Sink. Which, if you can't tell, is a sink that has plants growing in it for a very short period, then transforms into a sink that has dead plants rotting in it for a longer time. Sure it looks pretty cool, but come on Jean-Michel, there isn't any mention of a filter or anything that would indicate that real plants might stand a chance. As a strict sink urinator, I imagine my good fortune bamboo plant would be dead by the afternoon the sink was installed.

I truly love this. I could kill for one, I'm not even joking!
And... first for like the the third time in a couple of days? I have to get a life.

have you tried? i don't think that in between sink pissing will kill your plants. however, it's nice to hear some critical thinking about these kinds of designs. usually it's all about 'i really love this'.

FYI sink pissing is awesome. for boys anyway, girls may have more difficulty.

might as well add a fish tank then it can kill off the fish in no time!
