After dismantling the old toilet, the main goals for the design of this project is to solve the problems of the physical environment, so that the whole campus can have more natural lighting and ventilation, as well as presenting a fresh and bright atmosphere. The project is located on the site of a school next to a mountain, and the mass appearance of the new toilet building is inspired by the ridgeline shape of the mountain. The architect used arcs in the volumetric shape to form an atrium between the toilet and the existing building of the school. The architect specially opened the core area of the entire toilet building and used openings to let the wind penetrate. The original toilet building has blocked the natural light from entering the campus and created a great sense of oppression. The architect cleverly used openings and arcs to retract the volume to create an organic long atrium between the new toilet building and the school building. A tree is planted at the center of the atrium, allowing greenery to decorate the monotonous corridor space. The roof layer of the toilet connects to the second floor of the school building nearby and can be used as an outdoor space for student’s activities.
