CO-WC

We need a sign that reflects our colorful selfies and makes us smile. This is how we came up with the project CO-WC. New To Unisex Toilets? Gender-neutral bathrooms spread around the globe. Public transports adopted the concept of one-unit-for-all as standard. More and more bars, clubs, and restaurants have unisex toilets as well as town halls, libraries, or universities. Spirit Of Our Time
The global trend of gender-neutral public bathrooms goes far beyond economic benefits. This shared little space, standing for openness, diversity, and difference, reflects the spirit of our time. Hot Potato
Gender-neutral public bathroom is often articulated during the debates on one´s gender identity or civil rights issues in politics. The concept of one-unit-for-all enables us to think different from that of binary gender. The public space, gendered for a long time, becomes a place where every body is accepted as oneself. Problems With Old Signs
Current public restroom signs are out of time. Recycling old pictographs of a man and woman standing together, the signs repeat the old concept of gender. They sadly discourage the resisting potentials which are more than two. New CO-WC-Sign
CO-WC playfully represents our colorful portrait. We are invited to a play, in which we find ourselves blended in transition. CO-WC enhances our daily experience with oneself and other selves: we are not over and done, but in the flow of life.
