Kaffee 9 sits at the Eisenbahnstraße entrance of Markthalle Neun, one of Berlin's well-known food halls in Kreuzberg. A popular neighbourhood café, known for its long counter, high ceilings and house-roasted coffee.

The CO-WC sign has marked its toilet door since December 2018.


// HOW THE SIGN WAS HANDLED

The café wanted its guests to find the toilet — so it asked for a custom edition: the word "Toilette" printed beneath the vibrating image.

The image stays undecidable. The word is fixed. Both on the same card.
