Transparent Restrooms of Yoyogi

John Davidson via Google Maps

Standing in the parks of Yoyogi, these vibrant glass pavilions are part of the acclaimed 'THE TOKYO TOILET' project that reimagines public facilities through high design. Using smart PDLC film technology, the colorful see-through walls instantly turn fully opaque when locked from the inside, letting visitors check for cleanliness and safety before stepping in. At night, the structures glow like illuminated lanterns, adding a whimsical touch of modern art to the urban parkscape. Architecture enthusiasts and film lovers alike will appreciate the spot, which even earned a spotlight in Wim Wenders’ Oscar-nominated film 'Perfect Days.'
