Public Space Reimagined
Few spaces are as unassuming as the public toilet, yet this beautifully conceived structure in Liuba County elevates the mundane into a work of architectural artistry. Set within a bustling area near schools, bus stops and tourist sites, the design creatively merges practicality with aesthetic sensibility. Red bricks, wooden strips and glass bricks are layered in a thoughtful collage, forming arches and walls that play with light and shadow. The design also incorporates sun shield panels, frosted glass and corrugated glass to create soft, diffused lighting throughout the space. The result is a building that, while functional, feels dynamic and inviting. Every detail, from the semi-circular glass brick arches to the truss roof, is meticulously crafted to balance form and function. This public facility not only serves dual purposes for bus passengers and tourists but also invites interaction, offering seating areas for the local community and a sense of openness to the streetscape.
