Get Started
Backstage
When we enter the restroom, we are never alone. Instead, we are entangled in a network of bodies, infrastructures, ecosystems, cultural norms, and regulations defining our bathroom experience. Through a design-sociology survey with 50 respondents from 10 countries, BACKSTAGE seeks to report the current state of privacy within the bathroom, as it is inevitable that the space will evolve and adapt in the face of shifting social, medical, economic, political, and environmental factors.

Ben Weiyang Wu is a multidisciplinary designer who specializes in idea-driven identity, web design, and creative direction. He is a devoted generalist who enjoys the cyclical process of iteration, constantly experimenting with new technologies to make the theoretical real. Drawing inspiration from aesthetic origins and the work of non-designers, he chases designs that stay with people by capturing moments of surprise among the ordinary.
