Kawakawa Public Toilets by Hundertwasser
Like nothing you've ever seen before, golden orbs perch on the grass tuft roof of this truly unique public washroom!
Austrian architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser lived in Kawakawa from the mid-'70s to his death in 2000 and gifted the toilets to the town. Be warned - he didn't like using straight lines, so this might be one of the most fascinating designs you encounter!
