"The TOTO Prize for the Best Universally Designed Bathroom was awarded to Tokyo Trusswork, a design by the Italian-based team of Roberto Pasini, Andrea Ranieri, Alice Ranieri, and Matteo Lucc, of the design firm AUS in Forli, Italy. Their design includes 4,000 residential units, with each unit offering a “neo-bathroom.” Intended as a secluded space for physical rest and personal meditation, each bathroom is equipped with an advanced SPA (‘Salus Per Aquam,’ i.e. ‘wellbeing through water’), with a chromo-therapy lighting system, an automated washlet, a LED lavatory, and a shower-tower/bathtub combination."
