Public Toilet Design presents a selection of 130 very diverse
public toilet designs - 50 of them installed over the last two
years - in which toilets enjoy special status as a vehicle for
various artistic and cultural expressions, corporate values and the
needs of different social groups. The book covers: History and
evolution of the public toilet. Places of leisure: e.g.,
restaurants, bars, clubs, malls, gyms, theatres, museums, stadiums.
Commuting spaces: e.g., airports, railway stations, boats, rest
areas. Public residences: e.g., hotels, spas, geriatric residences.
Working Environments: e.g., banks, offices, public administrations.
Materials and accessories used. Ergonomics: adaptations for users,
including the elderly, handicapped, nappy-changing stations.
Locations from around the world are featured, including
restaurants, bars, malls, schools, museums, hotels, gyms, cinemas,
boutiques, businesses, stadiums, airports, railway stations, street
lavatories and park toilets. Among the 50 new designs - and don't
miss the transparent 'Don't Miss a Sec' sidewalk toilet - are the
following: Central Library Rotterdam, The Netherlands; SIDE Hotel,
Hamburg, Germany; Rain Restaurant, Toronto, Canada; Roman Tabernae
at the Trajan's Forum, Rome; Rizhao Public Bathroom, Rizhao, China;
Mid-City Gym, New York City; Public Toilets at the Port of
Dubrovnik, Croatia; Yoga Deva, Gilbert, Arizona; Kros Urinal,
London, UK; Restrooms of the New Hotel, Athens, Greece. More than
600 full-colour photographs illustrate the designs in detail and
each project is accompanied by descriptive text in five languages.
Plans and detailed descriptions show the transformation of the
public toilet during its planning, development and construction
stages. Designers, architects, students and the purely inquisitive
will find Public Toilet Design fascinating and informative.
