TOKYO: Tokyo Toilet Project introduces the world with unique public toilets. A welcome sight to anyone who had too much to drink, but some might do a double-take when they come across the ones that have just opened in a Tokyo park.
Tokyo Toilet Projects are made of special glass, the cubicles become opaque when the lock is turned. Otherwise, they are completely see-through, with sinks, urinals, and toilet bowls in full view. These toilets were designed by architect Shigeru Ban as part of the project, which is backed by The Nippon Foundation, a non-profit organization. The project hopes to change by installing stylish toilets in public spaces with the common view that such facilities are dark and dirty places. Nippon Foundation Program Director Hayato Hanaoka said, "It would be great to see the Tokyo Toilets become a model for toilets not just in Japan but across the world."
As part of the project, a total of 17 public toilets will be redesigned by renowned architects and designers, including Pritzker Prize-winning Tadao Ando and Kengo Kuma.
