This Hideaway shovel<\/a> is by Wilhelm Berbig<\/a>, done as an Industrial Design student at the Universit\u00e4t f\u00fcr angewandte Kunst Wien<\/a> (University of Applied Arts Vienna). <\/p>\n

In Austria, there are signposted hiking trails where you can bivouac in small abandoned sheds. Savvy hikers on multi-day treks bring their own toilet paper, but these sheds have no bathrooms. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Berbig proposes stocking them with this shovel, in order that hikers can relieve themselves while leaving no trace.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

“What makes this spade more suitable for this special application than a standard planting spade is, on the one hand, the deliberately heavy construction for durability and theft protection and, on the other hand, the toilet roll holder integrated into the handle, which unmistakably communicates its purpose.”<\/p>\n

Although the shovel is super-heavy, Berbig notes that it “does not have to be used for days on end, but is designed to enable even inexperienced users to dig a hole efficiently. The well-dimensioned tread edges on both sides and the 42 mm thick maple wood handle help with this.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

He’s also thought through the manufacturing: “The spade blade is cut from a standardised steel tube, resulting in hardly any waste, and the tread edges are then bent and the handle holder welded.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Stocking the trail sheds with these shovels, Berbig reckons, would “serve both as a recognition feature and as a subtle reminder of the cycle of nature and is intended to encourage guests to leave no trace.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
