THE TOKYO TOILET

Shooting by Jiro Takano (Nacása & Partners Inc.)

Public toilets in Shibuya like you’ve never seen.

Toilets are a symbol of Japan's world-renowned hospitality culture. Public toilets have been redesigned in 17 locations in Shibuya through the vision of 16 world-class creators, making them safe and comfortable for everyone regardless of gender, age, or disability. We invite you to experience the uniquely designed facilities of THE TOKYO TOILET.

Location

While the specifications of each toilet vary, wheelchair access is possible at all locations. Ostomate facilities are available at some locations. All toilets are equipped with Washlet.
Note: Toilets that have been completed are marked with a red pin.

MAINTENANCE

Public toilets are meant to be used for years to come. In addition to our focus on designing impressive facilities, we at THE TOKYO TOILET believe that providing a comfortable user experience through cleaning and maintenance is equally important. We also work with professional toilet inspectors to periodically inspect the facilities to ensure we are providing the best user experience.
