What is the most 'microcosmic' typology of architecture?

To architect and professor Milinda Pathiraja, one answer could be the often overlooked sanitary facility.

With his practice , Milinda designed and built 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀, a middle school facility with toilets, handwashing sinks, drinking fountains, courtyards and outdoor seating.

The project goes beyond its primary function in the spirit of educating its young users and helping to regenerate the local socioeconomic context in :

“Although we’re creating public toilets, we didn’t want to limit ourselves to just that. We aimed to establish a civic territory, a public space.”
