See-through toilet from inside only! (pics) - Aquarium Advice

lmw80 · 07-15-2004, 04:31 PM

Here's a picture of a public toilet in Switzerland that's made entirely
out of one-way glass. No one can see you in there, but when you are
inside, it looks like you're sitting in a clear glass box.

I've heard of that. I think I saw them mentioned on some show where they are used in clubs. Very odd.

Can't you see through one-way glass if you get up close enough?

Ayesha97 · 07-15-2004, 05:13 PM

I work in the construction business and one of our architects sent that to us as a joke telling us that this was going to be the toilets they were going to use on all future jobs, lol. I got the e-mail and I was like, I gotta share this!

You are right about seeing through it. One way glass is the same on both sides, whichever side is brighter becomes the mirror, and darker becomes the see through side. I woud assume that they at least put a fairly bright light on the club side, and something dim on the toilet side to minimize the chance of see through. If you really wanted to, I bet you could still cup your hands around your eyes, put your head to the glass, and see right in.
