Meanwhile, Tokyo is transforming the face of its public toilet system with a postmodern architectural design.

A first user of the new facility will most definitely be amazed by the touch of genius that went into its reconstruction.

Forbes reports that public toilets are the most unlikely places anybody will want to be caught in as they are seen as untidy with dank-damp odour.

As a way to solve the general fear associated with these public and essential facilities, a non-profit organization called Nippon Foundation launched an initiative tagged The Tokyo Toilet Project.
