#DesignDestinations | In Tokyo, Japan, you can find some amazing public toilets designed by acclaimed architects 🚽 Completed in 2023, the Tokyo Toilet Project features seventeen redesigned public restrooms around the area of Shibuya. In collaboration with the Shibuya City government, architects and designers spent six years transforming these facilities to ensure they are accessible and comfortable to all, regardless of age or gender. The Tokyo Toilet Project has become a popular design landmark throughout the city, symbolising Japan's world-famous culture of hospitality. The toilets also recently featured in Wim Wenders’s film Perfect Days, which tells the story of a Tokyo toilet cleaner. 📷 1. Haru-no-Ogawa Community Park, Shigeru Ban (galen_lowe on IG) 2.

#DesignDestinations | Tucked away in Berlin's chic Prenzlauer Berg neighbourhood, the Stadtbad Oderberg is a captivating fusion of history and modernity💧 The dreamy bathhouse was designed by German architect Ludwig Hoffmann, and it opened in 1902 as a communal bathing space for local residents to improve the hygiene of the growing neighbourhood brimming with breweries and factories. The impressive design was well thought-out: instead of skylights, highlights on the side walls ensured pleasant lighting. The roof construction also prevented moisture on the ceiling. The bathhouse closed in 1986 and remained shut until 2012 when extensive renovations began in line with its listed status. It finally reopened in 2016 inside the boutique Hotel Oderberger Berlin, with guaranteed public access to the pool. 📸 Dirk Schmurkov (schmurkov on Instagram)

#DesignDestinations | One of London’s busiest tube stations is home to a colourful display of mosaics, sure to brighten up your commute 🚇 Designed by Scottish pop artist Eduardo Paolozzi, the dazzling panels of tiles at Tottenham Court Road station are one of the most famous public works of art on the London Underground. Installed in 1986, Paolozzi’s eccentric designs cover 950 square metres of the station. Paolozzi worked across furniture, ceramics, print, and fashion – and one of his magnificent sculptures, ‘Head of Invention’, sits just outside the Design Museum. The mosaics at Tottenham Court Road reflect Paolozzi’s interest in the meeting between humans and machinery and draw upon the bold screen prints for which he is most well-known. 📸 1 & 2: bordoi11 on Instagram

#DesignDestinations | In Minnesota you can find a unique petrol station by Frank Lloyd Wright ⛽ Conceived in 1927, the R. W. Lindholm Service Station was part of his idea for a new, utopian dwelling called Broadacre City - a place of the future with cars at the centre of it.

#DesignDestinations | Matisse’s Chapelle du Rosaire is a must-visit destination for art and architecture enthusiasts 💙 Located in the French Riviera town of Vence, Matisse started the project in 1949 and worked on it for over 4 years. The chapel features murals and stained-glass windows. For the stained-glass, Matisse limited his palette to three colours which creates a calm yet vibrant intensity as light beams through. The chapel is now regarded as one the artist's finest masterpieces and one of the greatest religious sanctuaries of the 20th century. 📸 maxlangu on Instagram

#DesignDestinations | A look at the wonderful Jardin Majorelle, located in Marrakech, Morocco 🌵 Originally dating back to the 1920s, this botanical garden was created by French artist Jacques Majorelle. The garden was purchased by fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent in the 1980s to save it from being sold to hotel developers. The garden is a living work of art, with exotic plants from around the world such as water lilies and banana trees. At the centre of the garden is a bright blue villa, designed by architect Paul Sinoir. The villa was designed in a cubist style with strong geometric shapes and was painted in 'bleu Majorelle', after the owner. 📸 marta.agnello on Instagram
