The Tokyo Toilet Project essentially aimed to redesign 17 public toilets in Tokyo’s Shibuya district with the help of 16 creators from around the world. It was commissioned by The Nippon Foundation. The project emerged to showcase Japan’s cleanliness and hospitality culture through public restrooms. Each of these facilities has unique designs. They are all well-kept and clean. Some of the architects who worked on The Tokyo Toilet project were the world-renowned Kengo Kuma and Tadao Ando. However, the Oscar-nominated movie Perfect Days which follows the daily life of a local janitor who cleans these public restrooms in Shibuya brought real fame to this project.

Here are some of the facilities of the project:

A Walk in the Woods by Kengo Kuma
This toilet is located in the Nabeshima Shoto Park and was designed by Kengo Kuma. The toilet is split into five different huts that were created to accommodate different needs (dressing, wheelchair, etc.) and are blended into nature with its design.
