Armitage Shanks

2017

Assemble have developed a full scale toilet with Armitage Shanks using a marbling process developed in our workshop.

As part of an art exhibition at the Hull School of Art, celebrating the joint centenary of Marcel Duchamp’s ‘Fountain’ and the founding of Armitage Shanks, we researched the process and history of toilet manufacture. This culminated in the production of a full size toilet at our workshop using a new marbling process which we developed.
