The “transparent” toilets, created by the Pritzker prize-winning architect Shigeru Ban and more than a dozen other leading designers, are made from coloured “smart glass” that turns opaque when the cubicles are occupied.
Phew! One could imagine crowds gathering otherwise and not nice if the technology fails whilst wiping one's bum or doing something rather naughty though.
