People's Architecture Office creates amorphous Amoeba Public Restroom for all genders

Curved micro cement and stucco walls define this amoeba-shaped public restroom in Beijing, China, designed by People's Architecture Office "with inclusivity as a priority."
Called Amoeba Public Restroom, the facility designed by People's Architecture Office has an irregular and organic shape reminiscent of cellular organisms.
Amoeba Public Restroom is a public toilet in Manshan Park
"The Amoeba Public Restroom is designed with inclusivity as a priority, whether people are families with kids, have disabilities, or are gender non-conforming," the studio told Dezeen.
"The cohesive space places an emphasis on inclusion rather than segregation," it added.
The building has a sculptural form
Located in Manshan Park in the mountainous Mentougou district of Beijing, the new toilet is part of a complex including a gallery, markets, sculptures and performance spaces. The building is composed of a single sinuous stucco wall that meanders to create individual stalls and sink areas around a central hall.

The wall rises up at the centre of the building, swooping down to form a v-shaped roof with integrated double-glazed skylights.
On entering the public bathroom, the curved walls forming the stalls define the rhythm of the space. LED strip lighting positioned where the walls meet the floor provides a soft glow.
