Because they’re often a relief,
because beauty starts from simple designs around us,
because a woman and a man can be made in so many ways,
Kwoa proudly presents:
Toilets sign photo gallery (60 designs so far)
Pictures were taken by Kwoa all around Shanghai and beyond. This gallery is a never ending work in progress, with new pictures added periodically.
Quick random statistics:
- 10/55 show women gender on the left (5 pictures were recomposed)
- 4/60 show wheelchair for disabled (Shanghai Disneyland hotel sign had wheelchair above, unseen here)
- 26 / 60 have filled symbol and not contour
- 42 / 60 have closed symbols and not discontinued shapes (neck aside)
- 12 / 60 have a neck (head linked with body)
- 10 / 60 have hair (yes, rabbit ears count!)
- 1/60 show actual toilets
- 5/60 do not show actual person
- 3/60 does not use clothing or hair to differentiate gender
- 3/60 are not just standing
