More Ideas for Downtown Restrooms
Earlier, this year, I posted on some concepts for downtown public restrooms, now come another idea that while I thought was interesting concept, I just can’t see anyone using the Axixa, except maybe someone either really intoxicated or homeless.
Check out the Axixa, it’s a ceramic, water-stain shaped device that functions as a public urinal. It even comes in pee-yellow.
The Axixa is a design by Mexican Miguel Melgarejo, and could be deployed cheaply and easily on any city wall. Inside there is a traditional U-bend water trap leading to a drainage pipe. The outside could actually be any shape, but a yellow streak of piss seems appropriate enough.
For some other more practical but still interesting suggestions:

It’s made entirely of one-way glass! No one can see you from the outside, but when you are inside it’s like sitting in a clear glass box! This style public restroom would draw a lot of attention.
