I'd go with Bloody Stupid Johnson, but possibly this isn't architecture enough.

When did that ever stop B. S. Johnson?? A pipe organ is not, technically, architecture.

It is still more architecture-adjacent compared to lemon grenades. Similarly, a bathroom is not technically architecture.

You may be right about the lemon grenades. However, I will argue heavily about the bathroom statement. There are Greek and roman baths, The hammam, the Victorian Turkish bath, and likely so many other examples across culture and time. And this does not even begin to touch on ones which I have seen, and had to draw floor plans for. Admittedly, lots of modern architecture is bland and very copy paste in appearance, but it is still technically architecture (even if it is a crime against aesthetics).

I think it was more a water installation project in that case than an architectural one. However you make a good point about the baths.
