Toilet bowl design

1. Research done on toilet seats:

Time flies! I remember sitting on this particular toilet bowl at japan's hotel 9 years ago! It's a memorable experience.

Briefly: Users are able to wash themselves after using it. It's convenient and user friendly with buttons placed on the side of the seat.

Briefly: Wow! Even toilet bowl have tabs on it! It allows everyone in your household to have their own personal toilet seat. It look so neat and clean!

"Toilet Pages is a reaction to the problem with wet and dirty toilet seats. Everyone is familiar with this situation. You are on the school or work simply public toilet, and the toilet seat is wet or dirty. You don’t want to sit on it! You don’t want to touch it! But you have to. The Toilet Pages solve and comment this situation. Why use public seat when you can have your own Toilet Pages on the pictures were made for family use but could be easily modified for places, where the small groups of people use the toilet repeatedly. Every person could have own personal toilet seat."

Briefly: One of my friend is already using this product. This kind of give me an idea on my toilet bowl design.

2. Length of time spend in the toilet cubicle...
1 minute to 10 minute

3. The common issues these days are...

• dirty seats (irresponsible toilet users)
• left own belongings in the toilet (forgetful users)

4. State of mind... (In my opinion)
Usually when you're in the toilet, either you're in a rush or you're having other thoughts in mind. Why? Because, everything it's a routine, it's a habit...

When everything became a routine, YOU SIMPLE DON'T THINK! You just pee and go. It's that simple! You don't need me to list down the steps for you huh!

Now you know why many people lost their belongings inside the toilet. It's not that they were forgetful, it's because they simply shut their minds when they were in the toilet cubicle.

5. Sketches on my design:

toilet cover function: front view

There's something special about my toilet seat cover design.
How the toilet seat cover function?
When the cover is close, it...

• cleans & dries the toilet seat
  
• flushes the toilet. (Notice that there's no button to flush the toilet bowl?)

Thus, users do not need to be afraid of sitting on dirty seats, or, to use toilet roll paper/toilet seat protector to keep their ass from the seats. It allows the users to feel comfortable, safe and clean while they're having their toilet break.

It's really simple!

• Flip the cover down
  
• Press the button
  
• Give approximately 5 seconds to allow it to be clean and flush
• Wait for the tick sign to be shown on digital screen
• And it automatically flip it back up for you
  

As you can see, the toilet itself do not have any ledge for placing one's belongings. Or even the toilet flush where you can see at your public toilet. This was my ultimate goal!

I do not want users to place their belongings on them as they will tend to leave their belongings in the toilet.
Hence, I've come up with...

Keepable-table at the cubicle's door!

Why cubicle door?
This is where users are facing when they're using the toilet!
They will simply stare at the toilet door! (if they're not playing with their phones)

They're force to hang their belongings, or place them on the table as there's no other place for them other than the floor.

The table is for items that could not be hooked. Example wallets, books...

when table's open

It's design in the way that users will remember to bring their belongings out, since it's conveniently place right in front them.

I believe this will make the toilet experience totally enjoyable and no one will be the next victim in losing their belongings in the toilet.
