Realizing
that we needed to come to understand why certain products remain unchanged
for such long periods of time, we began the project by researching the world
of toilets. From there, we strategically moved forward with this foundation
of information. Within the industry, the toilet is more commonly referred
to as the water closet—and not without good reason. The term "water
closet" implies a small room fitted with plumbing. And, in fact, toilets
share their origins more with plumbing than they do with other pieces of
furniture, products, or environments in a home. This explains why you'll
find toilet seats in the plumbing section at the hardware store along with
other pipes and fittings. Toilets are all standardized to fit certain dimensions
so that their pieces can fit together easily, hence the name American Standard!
