Bathrooms

Washing Hands

If you just need to wash your hands, we have a sink at the space, along with hand soap and others.

Second Floor Bathrooms

The floor that dma.space is on has two bathrooms.

To access them, first exit the space onto the hallway, then turn right down through an open door and into the main hallway, then make a left. You will see two bathroom doors, both will be gender neutral. The one on the right has a baby changing station, and a much more powerful toilet. The one on the left has automatic lights, but you can press the button to turn them off or on.

Bathrooms are cleaned by professional cleaners managed by the building management. We are not in charge of the bathrooms.

Third Floor Bathrooms

From the third floor, if you make a left from the stairs or elevator, and then continue and make another left, you will encounter the additional bathrooms - one toilet room, and one shower room.

The toilet room and toilet are unremarkable. There is a sink for washing hands.

The shower room is to the left of the toilet room. Its light switch is on the outside of the door.

The shower itself is your standard two-knob type with a fixed adjustable shower head at about six and a half feet up. There is a raised seat/shelf area to the back of the shower.

There is a supply of “hotel” soap, shampoo and conditioner in bottles fixed to the shower wall, but I recommend you bring your own.

Shower Rules

Please dry off completely and dress with shirt and shoes upon leaving the shower. (A towel over hair is fine, as long as you are otherwise fully dressed.) Leaving the shower with only a towel/towels/robe on is unprofessional and not acceptable attire in the Building's common areas.

  • An exception is given if you need to run to the bathroom while showering - please at least cover fully with towels if you must, and please use the toilet before showering, but absolutely DO NOT soil the shower drain.

Speaking of unprofessional: Do not permit two or more people into the shower room at once. Lock the door upon entering.

Do not leave anything in the hallways or outside the shower room while showering. Do not leave anything pf yours in the shower room after showering.

This is a commercial property. The shower can be used for cooling off in the summer, cleaning up before an interview, washing down large items, or washing up or decontamination after spills and accidents. However, this is not your home shower.

Don't tie it up for hours wasting the water. Don't use it in lieu of taking a shower at home.

If you are suffering a bathroom renovation, or are unhoused or otherwise without a shower at home or at a friend's house or hotel, there are shower facilities provided by Seattle and King County.
