A word to Jonathan Adler: put down the toilet paper rolls
A word to Jonathan Adler: put down the toilet paper rolls! [TD]
Seriously this is the most obnoxious consumer product to hit the shelves in years. Designer toilet paper roll covers. (@g%#(%(*#&$@#i#%@#)%&~!) When I first saw the commercial for these puppies watching SNL two weeks ago, I, no joke, thought it was one of those spoof commercials put on by the show. When the commercial turned up again on a nightly news channel, I was actually devastated. For humanity, for Simon Doonan, for our bathrooms.
People of America: you do.not.need.this. Period.
In case you actually can't believe that this is a non-ironic, famous designer driven product, read the interview that Adler gave to the daily [HERE]. Warning, he compares himself to Warhol in the piece:
What’s the best way to display toilet paper? Proudly! They’re individual covers but they look awful nifty in a stack. I have a whole wall of them, so it looks very groovy and graphic and conceptual.
