Toilet House by Sim Jae-Duck
SUWON, South Korea — Sim Jae-duck has made his political career as South Korea’s Mr. Toilet by beautifying public restrooms. Now he’s got a home befitting his title: a toilet-shaped domicile complete with the latest in lavatory luxury.
Billed as the world’s only toilet house, the 419-square-metre (4,508-sq-foot) concrete and glass structure rose on the site of Sim’s former home in Suweon, 40 kilometers (24 miles) south of Seoul.
In the center of the house is a glass-walled bathroom which features a device producing mist to make sure users do not feel too exposed. The loo’s lid is raised automatically and music is also turned on when people enter.
The house, which has a stream and small garden in front, is nicknamed in Korean “Haewoojae,” meaning “a place of sanctuary where one can solve one’s worries.”
