Welcome to OTGG’s Flushies, where every flush tells a tale, and every bathroom is a star!
BEST RESTROOM DESIGN
Location: The Curean Blue
Conjured up by the talented Tiffany Dorau with Interior Enhancements, is more than just a washroom—it’s a stroke of genius! Pairing her vision with the delightful hand-painted wallpaper by the one and only Matteo Miles, this restroom is truly a work of art. With Matteo’s knack for earning Flushies left and right, it’s safe to say this restroom is making a splash in more ways than one.
MOST DIVINE
Location: Vintage Now Modern
Step into Vintage Now Modern’s exclusive restroom, reserved solely for valued customers—because even divine relief deserves a VIP experience. Here, faith and serenity converge seamlessly, with framed portraits of Jesus adorning the walls. It’s not just a restroom; it’s a heartfelt tribute to the memory of the late owner’s wife’s unwavering devotion, offering a serene space for your bathroom break. 🙏🚽
MOST STRIKING VISUAL CONTRAST
Location: Oye Art Studios
Step into Oye Art Studios’ restroom and prepare to be flushed with inspiration!
Like brutalist architecture, the artist illustrates your bathroom experience with black lines on white walls. 😉 Inside, it’s the opposite— a unique play with negative and positive spaces. Plus, the vibrant yellow ceiling adds a splash of color to your “thinking space.”
Artist: Mica Jardin
Most Gruesome
Potty
Location: Greenville Army Store
Welcome to the Gruesome Potty at the Greenville Army Store! Despite their move, they’ve managed to preserve the legacy of the grossest restroom in town. Step inside if you dare, where every flush feels like a mission accomplishment, and every visit earns you a badge of courage. It’s not just a restroom; it’s a survival challenge. 💪🚽
MOST REFLECTIVE
Location: The Library at The Rabbit Hole
Have you ever wondered what 100,000 pennies look like? Take a moment to contemplate. Sebastian Carter, owner of The Library at The Rabbit Hole, says it would definitely give you a “penny for your thoughts” moment while you ponder amidst the porcelain. Whether contemplating life’s mysteries or enjoying the ambiance, it’s an experience worth more than just spare change.
SOOTHING SANCTUARY AWARD
Location: Jones Oyster Co.
Dive into an underwater adventure at Jones Oyster Co.’s fish-themed restroom! The whimsical fish wallpaper and sea-inspired hues create a tranquil ambiance, while the cool mirror subtly echoes the aquatic theme. Take a break from reality and refresh yourself in this sanctuary of tranquility. 🐟🚽
OG VIP at TrueLine
Location: Planned location for Trueline
While the crowd jammed out to Randomonium, we got a tour of its state-of-the-fart, erm, art, Inception-style in-house outhouse.
The venue will have a private lounge and rooftop bar- All the makings of luxury. But for right now, visitors can use the unofficial embedded office to drop it like it’s hot.
If you choose to wade through the muddy waters surrounding TrueLine’s pro-tem privy, you’re the real VIP (Very Important Pottier).
MOST RECTIFIED POTTY
Location: Distinct Cider Room
Step into the whimsical world of the Most Rectified Potty at Distinct Cider Room. An artist friend insisted the owners earn a “Flushie,” so they transformed the restroom into a masterpiece.
Experience “On the Dot” décor and a touch of “Pink Pearl” elegance amidst the eccentricity. Let go and embrace your inner “Free Spirit” in this sanctuary where the ordinary meets the extraordinary.
Dare to venture into the unknown, where “Alien Nation” awaits with open arms. It’s a journey of “Psychic Release” and “Danger” (Mind Blowing Up) excitement.
Best Spot for a Pit Stop 🚽🖼️
Location: Poe’s Pit Stop Vault and Vator
Dive into the mysterious world of Poe’s Pit Stop at Vault and Vator. With hauntingly beautiful paintings by Matteo Miles and multiple Flushie award-winning muralists, this restroom is a literary journey into the unknown.
Step inside and find yourself surrounded by the eerie elegance of Edgar Allan Poe’s tales. The walls come alive with his iconic characters, inviting you to ponder life’s mysteries while you answer nature’s call.
So come, take a break from the bustle of the speakeasy, and immerse yourself in the artistry of Poe’s Pit Stop. It’s a restroom experience that’s anything but ordinary.
