Hundertwasser Toilets, Public restroom building in Kawakawa, New Zealand

The restroom structure features curved walls, colored glass bottles, ceramic tiles, integrated sculptures, and a tree growing through its roof.

Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser designed this public facility in 1999 as his final architectural project before his death in 2000.

The facility embodies the architectural philosophy of integrating nature with human structures through natural materials and organic shapes.

The wheelchair-accessible restroom opens daily from 7 AM to 10 PM and serves both local residents and numerous international visitors.

Glass bottles embedded in the walls filter natural light into the interior spaces, creating patterns across the uneven floor surfaces.
