Our unconventional switch uses two aluminum foil sheets and a key to represent conductive pads and a bathroom stall lock. The lock is always attached to one conductive pad, and when the stall is locked, the metal lock touches the second conductive pad, closing the circuit and lighting a green LED on the outside of the door to indicate that the stall is occupied. The materials reinforce the concept because it required intentionality to connect both conductive pads, making no accidental contact possible, and the LED lighting up naturally reflects the bathroom stall being in use. It is a clear communicative way to relay the occupancy of a stall.
