庙埕旁的公厕：与传统环境的相处

Design a public toilet beside a Taiwanese temple forecourt, resolving how a small utilitarian building sits next to an intensely decorated historic one. Show the new building as deliberately quiet and low, its roof a simple shallow pitch in a dark tile that echoes the temple's roof material without imitating its ridge decoration, and its walls in a plain grey brick laid in a fine bond that relates to the temple's masonry base without copying its carving. Detail the height kept clearly below the temple's eave so nothing competes. Show the entrance oriented away from the temple's main axis so the building never appears in the ceremonial view. Detail a screen of vertical timber louvres facing the forecourt, softening the elevation and providing ventilation. Show the surroundings honestly: the temple's ornate roof rising beyond, a large incense burner, banyan shade, parked scooters, and elderly residents on benches. Detail the paving continuing from the forecourt to the building without a threshold. Show late-afternoon light. Photorealistic, deferential, grey brick against ornate temple, eye-level view.
