Paradise Creek Public Restrooms and Coffee Shop

We designed a project that combines a large bathroom space with a coffee shop and a community events area upstairs. The multiple-stall area is designed to provide easy access, safety, and a non-claustrophobic environment for people of all ages and genders. Families can visit the public restroom and coffee shop after visiting the nearby Paradise Creek Park. We wanted to emphasize connection in our design concept, as the park is located in a busy area with many visitors. To achieve this, we created a unique bench that can seat a large number of people and is adorned with educational signs. The bench is intended to evoke curiosity and playfulness and serves as a gathering area, meeting spot, and safe haven for anyone in need of a place to sit, relax, and clean their head.
