relief

Kawakawa, New Zealand

it is not difficult to spot the public toilets on Kawakawa's main street, and a relief when you do...the structure, designed by artist/environmental activist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, is a big draw for tourists

People would want to go there even if they don't have to.

Amazing! Those must be the most labour intensive facilities in the world.

How great to have toilets elevated to such high art! Great shot.

They certainly stand out. I had no idea that Hundertwasser designed public toilets, and in New Zealand to boot.

Unusual and playfully designed columns. I'd have to stop even if I didn't have to use the facilities. Great capture of it.

Without reading the caption, I would never have guessed New Zealand for this. Great capture of all the fun, colorful, shapes and repeating forms. ~BV~
