STUDY ON THE USER AWARENESS AND USAGE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SHARED USE IN PUBLIC TOILETS

This study aims to analyze users’ attitudes towards public toilet spaces and facilities through a questionnaire survey of a wide range of users, which is necessary for planning of inclusive toilets. This paper examines points to be considered when planning ‘shared space’ in public toilets based on a survey of the current situation through an understanding of the use of existing public toilets. In addition, the preference and avoidance psychology towards shared space designs such as the movement line and hand washing facilities was analyzed through questions using cards with multiple examples of spatial configuration patterns of inclusive toilets.
