533 words. Warm Wall is a heated protrusion in the wall of a women’s public restroom for alleviating menstrual cramps. It can be leaned on to commiserate with a friend, with a stranger, or alone. Using technology similar to underfloor heating systems, the wall is composed of heated ceramic tiles. Women can lean on the wall with their abdomens and lower backs for natural cramp relief through pressure and heat. Designing Matter, Lauren E.
