Jan.23th, 2016, "CHINA HOUSE VISION" hosted the final symposium in Beijing. MAD principal partner Yosuke Hayano presents "Micro Garden," a research study regarding future Hutong Toilet.
CHINA HOUSE VISION was intiated by Japanese graphic design master Kenya Hara. With “home” as a cultural lifestyle and the focus point of every industries, the program is a focus to review the value of community, lands and buildings.
MAD's proposal was inspired by Chinese traditional gardens. It explores the possibility of integrating the traditional aristic conception into public toilets in traditional hutong neighborhood. With the aim to create the harmony between the nature and human, the hutong public toilets are reformed from a sole function unit to a micro garden that can on one hand satisfy its functional use with advanced sustainable technique,on the other hand can create visual beauty and a sense of dynamics for the communities.
