Plenty of space

10 Comments

A toilet cubicle with glass walls stands in a fenced off garden at Itabu railway station in Chiba Prefecture. Dubbed "the world's most spacious public toilet" by local media, the outhouse is a glass cubicle with a fully functioning toilet that stands in a garden. The high fence surrounding the toilet can be locked from the inside, giving the user the experience of both privacy and space.
