A Clean Slate: Hygienic Public Restroom Design with WELL v.2

Now more than ever, public restrooms must be clean and comfortable for all users. However, exactly what that looks like has been up for debate. Join us in this one-hour course as we make the case for multi-stall public restrooms that address users’ concerns of privacy and hygiene through partitions, fixtures, hand dryers, and beyond. Participants will learn how to design new and existing restrooms that help projects fulfill WELL Building Standard v.2 requirements by promoting public health and safety.

Learning Objectives: 
  1. Identify emerging trends in public restroom design and how multi-stall restrooms address users’ concerns of privacy and hygiene
