SYNOPSIS
A “forgotten element” of the 606- restrooms. As we have observed, living in a city requires fundamental infrastructure, the most crucial being managing water, waste, and hygiene within the metropolitan area. These restrooms units will be part of the idealized community that crowd-sharing helps provide in today’s society, helping us unite neighborhoods as one moves through the city of Wayside Oasis.
This project is an army of 6 units of restrooms that sits on the 606 and cantilevers over the street. The bathroom units upon sunset turns into a public movie screening pad that helps illuminate the street beside and below the cantilever, further including public safety and efficient of multipurpose use of traditional restrooms.

This ceramic+architecture project is dedicated to the exploration of integration of advanced technology into our ceramics process, using softwares like rhino, grasshopper, etc., and the use of various methods of fabrication such as 3D printing and CNC Milling. I wanted to cater this project into learning the skill of mouldmaking, casting, glazing and firing over heavy research. The very specific shape of this designed object is inspired by Thai ornaments specifically worn by the mythical giants that guard the gate of Lord Buddha as well as the very simple shapes by 80’s Memphis design merging them into a translation of both these distinct styles creating an armored army in a suspended colorful procession.
