About Equality Twalèt Piblik San Distenksyon Sèks
Equality se yon twalèt piblik san distenksyon sèks ki chita nan Estasyon Banqiao, nan vil New Taipei. Espas 80 mèt kare a gen yon wotè plafon 2.7 mèt e li konstwi ak mozayik seramik ansanm ak panno separasyon plastik dansite segondè. Yon kondwit lè nan chak sèl kreye yon presyon negatif ki elimine move sant. Yon endikatè siyal nan antre a montre ki sèl ki disponib ak tip yo, ki gen ladan pisin (uinal), style oksidantal, style oryantal, ak sèl aksesib pou moun andikape. Yon konsòl lavabo santral enstale nan yon wotè ki apwopriye pou timoun, e yon miwa mi vèt jwenn dlo gri ki soti nan lavabo a pou l fonksyone.

- The interior space is constructed ceramic tiles and high dense plastic partition walls. Air duck is installed in each toilet stall to suck the smell for creating the space negative pressure.
- Design Challenge
- To achieve a gender-neutral toilet design, we investigated color choices for the space, circulation, signage, and lighting. These elements influence the mentality of users and contribute significantly to providing a welcoming atmosphere. The green wall at the mirror utilizes the gray water generated from the sink to innovate water usage and even more sustainable applications.

- The main objective of this project is to achieve gender equality with a design solution. Gender equality, one of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), is often discussed in social issues. New Taipei City, the largest population city in Taiwan, has spent a significant amount of effort addressing SDGs in the city development. Therefore, this gender-neutral public toilet project is the milestone of New Taipei City's achievement.
- Inspiration
- The color, planning and lighting are inspired by concept of gender neutral. Toilet as one of the most sensitive space and function for gender equality, the design serves as the key element to go beyond of traditional gender barrier.
