About Ocean Vista Public Toilet Renovation Pampublikong Palikuran
Ang Ocean Vista ay isang muling pagpapaganda ng pampublikong palikuran na matatagpuan sa tabing baybayin na daanan sa Coloane, Macau, sa isang burol na nakaharap sa karagatan. Ang panloob na disenyo ay muling isinaayos at ang mga bagong functional na elemento ay idinagdag sa umiiral na konkretong istruktura sa loob ng parehong sukat ng lupa. Isang plataporma ng pagtanaw, isang lugar na upuan sa balkonahe, at isang mahabang bangkong-upuan ay nagbibigay-daan sa mga bisita upang tanawin ang karagatan at obserbahan ang mga bituin sa gabi. Ang kayumanggi at mamula-mulang mga karagdagang elemento ay hango sa mga bato na natatakpan ng mineral sa tabing baybayin na daanan. Ang mga guhit sa mga bagong tampok ay nagsasala ng liwanag ng araw at lumilikha ng gumagalaw na liwanag at anino.

- Unique Properties
- Ocean Vista is a public toilet renovation project located along the coastal trail at Coloane Macau on the hillside facing the ocean. By reorganizing the interior layout and introducing new functional elements on top, the new design not only optimizes the functions of a public bathroom, but also it brings human closer to nature. By providing a viewing platform to enjoy the ocean, a balcony seating to observe the stars at night and a long bench to chill - it is an authentic public space for all.

- Design Challenge
- The challenge is to reorganize the interior spatial layout and introduce new functional elements upon existing concrete structure in the same footprint. Our goal is to convert it beyond its simple function and to subvert the perception of a typical public bathroom in Macau, which is dark, dirty, messy, and smelly.
- Inspiration
- The exterior renovation is inspired by the rocks along the coastal trail. Due to salty sea breeze, layers of minerals adhered to the surface forming very special brown and reddish rocks in this region. The new functional elements adhere to the existing structure like minerals; its form and its color echo with the rock and with the natural surroundings. The rhythm of lines that shaped the add-on features filter sunlight forming a movement of light and shadows where human meets nature.
- Project Duration
- This project is located in Coloane Macau and is completed in May 2021 within 2 months of renovation period.
