Re: Need some ideas?
* There are certainly cases where an audience's sex is important. For example, ever wondered why the lines outside the women's washroom during the intermission at a play are 10 times as long as the lines outside the men's washroom? Because architects are oblivious to the fact that women and men are "setters and pointers", respectively, and thus, women inherently take longer in the bathroom on average. But do they build three times as many stalls for women as they do for men?
Architects LOVE symmetry. Except for the ones that love asymmetry. But I think when it comes to restrooms, they all love symmetry more.
I'm not sure where I heard this, but I have the awful feeling it was from Jared Spool during one of his presentations, explaining how to locate the facilities, that "In a large building, bathrooms are always adjacent in one of three dimensions."
