FRR: Pre-production prototype
It offers women to<br />
urinate in public spaces<br />
in a hygienic and<br />
convenient way.<br />
1. Hygiene:<br />
- no toilet seat<br />
- lady p. is a woman’s<br />
urinal, so it’s only meant to<br />
urinate and not for feces.<br />
lady p: solution
2. convenience:<br />
Ergonomically adapted to<br />
female anatomy while<br />
hovering<br />
lady p: solution
Compared to conventional<br />
toilet:<br />
Narrow front, allows her a<br />
comfortable leg position<br />
Rim of urinal is 10 cm.<br />
higher, so body weight<br />
carries less heavily on<br />
strained knees in hovering,<br />
contact- free position<br />
lady p: solution
It uses less water<br />
than a conventional toilet!<br />
Flushing of toiletpaper is no problem<br />
lady p: sustainability
Enjoy the symposium!
