The Tokyo Toilet

In the past, public toilets in cities may not have left a good impression due to sanitary and safety concerns. Inclusive design qualities were usually lacking in such facilities. Public toilets should be accessible, comfortable, and anxiety-free for everyone at all times. With this concept in mind, the project team considered what sort of public toilet would be safe, clean, and comfortable for everyone to use. Seventeen existing toilets in the streets and parks of Shibuya in Tokyo were renovated accordingly, all of them gender-free, fitted with the latest sanitation equipment, and able to accommodate wheelchair users and ostomates. This book shows just how truly beautiful a toilet can be. Languages: Japanese/English
