The P-Tree Is Just Begging For You To Pee In It

You’re out with your friends one night. Tipsy. Falling asleep at the bar. Good times. You’re on your way home when, suddenly, nature calls. In your drunken stupor you wish there was a urinal on the tree you’re already peeing on. Et voilà! A toilet for drunks!

AANDEBOOM, a Dutch design studio, created the P-Tree to address the whole “peeing on public property” problem afflicting modern society. The urinal itself it tied to a tree and hooks into a tank or central sewage system. It even flushes! All our problems are solved. Every metropolitan area needs this!

At least until your city starts smelling like one huge toilet. Or they get vandalised. Or they fall into disrepair. And that’s after it somehow becomes OK for drunk dudes to whip it out in the street. Not cool. [Dezeen via FastCo Design]

    Seems like a good idea for public gatherings etc, what about the chicks though? Not that I’d actually want to watch that mind, that’d be creepy!

    While working in the UK, I was amazed to find outside of some bars the council would, late in the evenings, place a standard portable toilet (for women) and these 4 person open urinals http://bhutaniinternational.tradeindia.com/Exporters_Suppliers/Exporter19339.316147/Portable-Men-s-Urinal-For-4-Persons.html

    The trees would be missing out on some real good nutrients, pee on the tree, FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.
