Eye-catching art
<Graphics showing people with developmental disabilities that they can "wait">
The graphics don't look special, but they have been carefully thought out.
For example, the characteristics of developmental disabilities are diverse and unique, making them difficult to quantify. That's where art comes in. Some children like numbers, others focus on colors and shapes, and some love to move their fingers. We create eye-catching art that is filled with ideas that allow each parent and child to unleash their imagination and play in a variety of ways.

Children who can't wait for their parents to use the toilet.
Together with a developmental disability specialist, we designed eye-catching art that would help children enjoy waiting.
Children with developmental disabilities have characteristics such as "not liking new places" and "acting before thinking," which can make it difficult for parents to use public restrooms when they are out. To address this issue, TOTO formed a project team with external experts to create eye-catching art that would attract the interest of children with developmental disabilities and help them enjoy waiting in the restroom. The core members of the project were UD advisor Akiko Hashiguchi, TOTO's Nana Terashima, and Step One's Kakihana. The features and aims of the eye-catching art are explained below.
We can also provide custom graphics for each company. First, we would appreciate it if you would read the article and think together about how you can contribute.
