Cool idea for the washroom labeling

For those who did not know, in Vancouver the bathrooms are called washrooms.  I took this picture in one of the local restaurants.  I think this was creative.  Instead of boring words - Males/Females or Ladies/Gentlemen - the owners used these paintings.  Recognizable and elegant.

  1. That is a very interesting way to identify washrooms. It is most definitely elegant, but easily recognizable? I am not so sure. But then again that could be my brain thinking.

    Nice post.

  2. Hi Ali,

    I don’t think that it took me any longer than usual to identify the proper room. These labels surely caught my attention, too.
    I did not mention that these labels also matched the whole atmosphere and design of the restaurant. That is why perhaps it was not difficult to find the right way:).
