Project idea
The project's mains goals is to minimalize water spent by keeping temperature of the water one, constant level.
Technology
The technology make a use of panels receeving thermal energy that is usually wasted, keeping the energy and releasing it when it is needed- when water's temperature reach level below the one determined by user.
Bath tube is composed of three layers:

1. Layer of structuraly changed polyethylene -
material that is thermal conductor and electrical insulator. It conducts heat to the next layer.

2. Second layer works as a battery - it is heat storage. When water in the bathtube becomes colder than it is wanted by user, thermal energy accumulated in this layer is used to warm the water by using a water pump.

3. Third - external layer is a shelter for heat battery heat pump and heat - conducting interior of bath tube.

Water control is provided by led panel placed in central part of left side of the bathtube. The panel uses nanotechnology.
Water pipes and tap nas been hidden in frontal - shell shaped part of the bathtube.

Shape of the bath tube is inspired by beauty of one of the finest formations of nature - amber.
Bathtube is deep brown, it is partly transparent and has morphic shape. Structure of the main material used in bathtube’s layers is half - transparent. Although because of its blurrines it
Provides comfort and for the user.
