THE TOKYO TOILET Daido Moriyama

The Tokyo Toilet by internationally acclaimed photographer Daido Moriyama is a compelling photobook—re-edited from a three-year serialization in SWITCH magazine—that invites viewers into a mysterious alternate space hidden within everyday life. The 46 photographs featured in this volume capture public toilets across 17 locations in Shibuya Ward, which were completely renovated by 16 creators, including world-renowned architects, art directors, and designers. While each structure possesses a distinct architectural identity, Moriyama's lens unifies them, imbuing the images with a captivatingly unique and shared atmosphere. Published by Switch Publishing in 2023, this large-format (300 x 300 mm) hardcover book is a remarkable visual experience where stunning architectural design meets the profound power of photography.
