Designed by Pentagon Design for Woodio, The Block is an attractive looking toilet that hangs on the wall with concealed fittings. The seat height is adjustable and can be connected to most flushing systems on the market in the European Union. It handles business just like any other standard flush toilet.

“Our story started with a crazy idea with a bunch of people who wanted to see the world differently,” says Woodio. “Our first idea was to make wooden tiles for the bathroom because it seemed fun and challenging. We quickly realized that ceramic is a material that is taxing on the environment and has a large carbon footprint. The result is an award-winning world-class biomaterial innovation – a 100% waterproof woody wood material.
