Toilet Talk_with Ryan

We had to judge bathrooms based on layout, intuitiveness, and function. 

Ryan's bathrooms:

Boys bathroom in FAB:

I wouldn't say this bathroom was designed so much as it was put together. You enter and you're facing the sinks, two stalls are on your left, and the urinals are directly on your right. The stalls are fine. But the urinals. The urinals are where we run into trouble. You walk in, and they are directly to your right. Two of them. This means that anyone using the urinal close to the door is directly facing whoever is entering. And the door is a push, giving the person entering and extra forward momentum as they are unwittingly forcing their way into your personal space. This leaves the pee-ER stuck, literally POINTING at any person standing in the doorway. Its almost impossible to not make awful, violating eye contact when you're peeing and someone's entering. Not very well thought out.

Also the sink barely allows enough space for your fingers to get underneath the soap dispenser.

Bathrooms in FAC:

The bathrooms in FAC all work fine, there are usually two doors leading in, some extra privacy. Stalls on the left are comfortable  and the urinals make sense, facing the wall. Even the mirrors across from the urinals are sort of facing down, giving you better look at your whole person and a worse look at those peeing behind you.

But ALL of the sink fixtures are too short and make you touch the porcelain sink when you're trying to get water on your hands.

Bathroom in first floor of FAD:

The boys bathroom is BIG and empty, probably the most handicap accessible of all the bathrooms mentioned. The placement of the sink and paper dispenser makes sense, but the toilet is facing the door, which leads to some unwanted stress when you can't remember if you've locked it or not. Its too far away from the door to correct that mistake mid-business, so you just sit there hoping no other dude on the entire floor has to use the bathroom anytime soon.
