This is because majority of them across the globe are actually dirty and nobody likes to use them except for the times when you just cannot control the nature\u2019s call.

Imagine yourself using a restroom located in the middle of a street that is transparent, you need audacity to do that. Well, this public bathroom is enclosed with reflective glass walls. While sitting inside, you can see everything and everybody outside, but nobody can see you inside. This curious bathroom design is a result of artist Monica Bonvicini\u2019s imagination.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Melting Dream<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Standing tall in a street and connected to a park, a structure resembling a giant cake or an ice cream sundae is actually a public toilet.

Developed by Dutch company Urilift, these toilets are installed in several places across the country. As per the plan, the company is installing them near drinking establishments that are quite lively during weekends. Pop-up Toilet is a urinal, so it is not of any help for females.
