Abstract: In one embodiment, a dual configuration aircraft lavatory includes a plurality of walls enclosing and defining a lavatory interior space, wherein one of the walls is coextensive with a portion of the cabin. Within the lavatory interior space are a toilet, a washing station and a waste receptacle movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the waste receptacle is attached to a wall of the lavatory between the washing station and a door wall. In the second position, the waste receptacle occupies a second predetermined volume of space in the aircraft cabin separated from a first predetermined volume of space occupied by the waste receptacle in the first position. Moving the waste receptacle from the first position to the second position reveals additional space within the lavatory sufficient so that two adult humans simultaneously fit within the lavatory interior space.

Abstract: A monument arrangement for a cabin of a vehicle has a first monument, with a washroom formed therein, a second monument and an aisle. The first and second monuments enclose the aisle, wherein an access opening to the washroom is directed toward a side wall of the second monument and is adjacent to the aisle. The distance between the access opening and the relevant side wall of the second monument is at most 1 m, and the side wall of the second monument has a first, rigid side wall portion and at least one second side-wall portion, which is mounted on the first side wall portion such that it can be pivoted about a vertical axis and which can be pivoted from a neutral position, running in the direction toward the first side wall portion, into an angled position, directed away from the first monument and the aisle.
