About Equality Palikuran na Walang Kinikilingang Kasarian
Ang Equality ay isang pampublikong palikuran na walang kinikilingang kasarian na matatagpuan sa Banqiao Station, New Taipei City. Ang 80 metro kuwadradong espasyo ay may taas na kisame na 2.7 metro at gawa sa mga tisang seramiko at mataas na densidad na dingding-panghati na plastik. Ang bawat kubikulo ay may daluyan ng hangin na lumilikha ng negatibong presyon upang alisin ang masasamang amoy. Isang senyales na indikeytor sa pasukan ang nagpapakita kung aling mga kubikulo ang bakante at ang kanilang uri, kabilang ang urinal, kanluranin, silanganin, at akma para sa may kapansanan. Ang gitnang lababo ay inilagay sa taas na angkop para sa mga bata, at ang salaming berdeng pader ay pinapatakan ng gray water mula sa lababo.

- 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.

Therefore, this gender-neutral public toilet project is the milestone of New Taipei City's achievement.
