Fans of the Oklahoma-based indie band The Flaming Lips will be familiar with their trippy-yet-edgy aesthetic; their website identifies them as a “psychedelic alternative rock band.” Where better to express that aesthetic than … their bathroom?
The bathroom in their Oklahoma compound was designed by FitzSimmons Architects, and was modeled on … well, we don’t know what. A dissolving sand castle? Regardless, Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne describes it as the “strange, futuristic bathroom” he goes to from his “strange, artistic bedroom.”
Design Milk has a great gallery with plenty of other pictures of the bathroom and the compound. Oklahoma Today also has a great, detailed feature from 2005 on perhaps the state’s quirkiest residents.
