MONU #38
When it comes to “Inclusive Urbanism” Clara Greed clarifies that “It Is Not Just About Toilets” in our interview with her. However, according to her, one of the fundamentals of creating inclusive cities is to provide more toilets, especially more accessible toilets. That is why we must never underestimate the importance of the level of toilet provision. Because the public toilet especially, where nature comes into direct contact with culture, is the petri dish for inclusive design, from space to product to service, as argued by Jo-Anne Bichard and Gail Ramster in their contribution “Wee the People: A Manifesto for the Bladder and Bowel”. If you as a designer can get this right, you can probably get anything right. That includes arranging urban spaces to solve the issues that affect people, such as: sufficient and adequate public transit; housing needs; provision of basic services; universal accessibility to public space, services, and safety, creating livable cities for everyone, in the full meaning of the term.
