I took these images a few years ago at the one-day conference at Park College, Parkville, Missouri just north of Kansas City.
The private college's dominant feature is a venerable limestone structure located on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River, now on the National Register of Historic Places.
What many don't realize is how much of the campus is underground. Campus developers utilized the bluffs to excavate and build learning spaces and parking underground. This restroom reflects how the designers honored their surroundings, incorporating the texture of the limestone bluffs as well as tile to the restroom's design. The limestone walls are not incorporated quite so clearly in other areas but it clearly adds an fascinating aesthetic to the environment.
