The brief:
"Your client is a well-travelled business man who has spent a lot of time in Japan. He has approached you to design a bathroom that is practical yet reflects his interest in Japanese gardens and Zen philosophy. The design is to be innovative and contemporary. You may select the bathroom functions to be incorporated , but as it is the only bathroom, at a minimum the design must include a shower, basin, and WC. In designing your space you are to consider the ergonomic requirements and the passage/circulation needs for contemporary bathroom. your research project will act as a resource document that supports your design solution"
