The Lobster loos are iconic public toilets in Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand. They are part of the Kumutoto public space, on Queen's Wharf[1] along the Wellington Waterfront.[2] They are formed from two concrete 'tentacles' covered over by a red-orange steel shroud.[3] The toilets have been the subject of international interest.[3]
