Design of Gender Neutral Icon for Restrooms.

We designed an icon that is humane, truly inclusive, and respectful. Binary elements were eliminated to make it non-conformist, while the dot makes it iconic, universal and differentiating. Its simplicity ensures high recall value and worldwide acceptance. In India, it will be accompanied by Hindi and English text that says ‘Gender Neutral’ catering to binary, non-binary, transgender, agender, genderqueer, pangender, gender non-conformist, and others. One of its first applications is at India’s most significant avenue at New Delhi - the Kartavya Path, the Central Government’s seat of administration, also the site of the Republic Day Parade.
