Danny Venlet's Shower design for Viteo shoots vertical streams of water from its perimeter up to 4 meters high. The jets are automatically activated when weight is transferred onto the platform--110 lbs. of hot bunny bikini babe, for instance. This reverse shower is suggested for use as a refreshing cool-down at pools and gardens on a hot summer day.

A sharp idea, I especially like the weight activation.
However, I see a few problems:
-the hair is the hardest body part to get fully wet, thus keep it close to the water source
-the holes might easily clog as dirt runs over them
-looks like there's no temperature options
Again I must be ashamed to be belgian. Why is it that you people keep endorsing these rip-off designers? This design is a rip off and it is even a bad one. You can find an explanation about the original idea of Keigo Harada in this pdf:

I do hope that in the future core would be more about moral and not just about plain ordinary commerciality...pfft..Why bother its a dirty expensive trendy world afterall. And apparently thats all that matters....
