Public Toilet by Toyo Ito Yoyogi-Hachiman Tokyo Japan - Part of the Tokyo Toilet Project


A trio of mushroom-like toilets form Pritzker Prize-winning architect Toyo Ito's contribution to the city-wide project. The facility, which replaced a former toilet block positioned at the bottom of a flight of steps leading up to the Shibuya district's Yoyogi Hachimangu shrine, references mushrooms that grow in the nearby forest. Ito broke the toilets into three separate spaces to try and make the facility a safe place for all of its users.
