Yes, guilty as charged. Sensei is a tad excessive. But don’t you just adore how clean-cut the signs in Japanese washrooms are? Sleek symbols. Geometric shapes. Eye-catching bright colours.

Coupled with the fact that Japanese washrooms are spotless and have warm seats during winter, I can pledge that even relieving myself is a pleasurable sensory experience. I appreciate how the Japanese take care to make these small details visually impactful.
