    ‘View’ public toilet (case study)

    - NANJING SHI, CHINA
    •Architects: LiZhu

    •Area: 300 m²

    •Year: 2015

    •Location: Niushou Mountain Scenic


    Spot, Jiangning Qu, Nanjing Shi,
    Jiangsu Sheng, China.
    The building is hidden behind a small hill in the
    north, overlooking the Foding Temple, Niushou
    Mount, Foding Pagoda and Foding Palace
    behind layers of tree tops. “View” is the theme
    of this building.

    Each spot is also a rest area for tourists and equipped with control
    facilities and management rooms. Land is thus saved. Tourists can enjoy
    convenient and comfortable use of toilets, and at the same time can take
    a rest, view the scenery and recharge themselves.

    The process of entering the lounge through the approach is


    like a walk in the veranda on the slop. The veranda is
    composed of boxes with opens on different levels so that
    views in the distance are revealed one by one.
