Nishihara Itchome Park Toilet

Toilets are a symbol of Japan's world-renowned hospitality culture. Public toilets have been redesigned in 17 locations throughout Shibuya (Tokyo, Japan) with the help of 16 creators invited from around the world. 

ANDON TOILET
The former toilet in Nishihara 1-chome were uninviting and rarely used.

We thought it was important to create a facility that not only fulfills the basic requirements of a public toilet,

such as having enough toilets to ensure a reasonable wait time,

but offers a unique appeal that encourages more people to use the facility.

By constructing a facility that is bright and open in the limited space of the site,

We hope that the toilet will illuminate the park like andon, or lanterns, creating an inviting public space for the visitors.
