The fittings, finishes and wellness solutions presented for the bathroom have a dramatic presence, showcasing new materials and expressions of form. Bathtubs, washbasins, finishes, furniture and showers take the stage that appear as real works of art, the result of complex developments in cutting-edge technology and artisanal craftsmanship. The meticulous selection of materials is key, ranging from natural stones to tiles produced from recycled components, materials that enable the creation of multiple solutions, exploiting advanced technology to create products that stand up to wear and contact with water as well as being easy to clean.
Stilo is the new proposal from Scavolini, designed by Spalvieri & Del Ciotto as a furnishing system for the bathroom (kitchen and living area), capable of highlighting the compositional and stylistic continuity of the various spaces. The refinement of the details is expressed in the pure and rigorous form of the cylinder, which represents its distinctive feature: an element that recurs horizontally and vertically within the design scheme, giving rise to handles, shelves, and light bars. The choice between two tones, black and titanium, offers the possibility to create different configurations: black imparts a magnetic and sophisticated allure, while titanium provides a more delicate and natural touch.
The Nabatei collection from antoniolupi designed by AL Studio consists of three models of countertop sink that are distinguished by their pared-down geometric shapes. Available in a square, rectangular and oval version, the range can be made in an extensive range of materials: marble, stone, Icemood and Cristalmood (in the photo, sink in Carrara marble) which emphasise the sophistication of the sinks, highlighting the simple shapes and ensuring versatility and elegance, in any bathroom context. The Nabatei Quadrato wall-hung and countertop model appears as an elegant and sturdy cube with a smooth and finely-finished surface. Its harmonious simplicity is suitable for any style of decor, bringing timeless elegance to the surrounding environment.
Mercy, the sculptural freestanding sink from Kreoo, designed by Christophe Pillet, is a cylinder carved out of a single block of marble that provides a continuous surface for shaping with complex patterns, sometimes small, sometimes large, at different depths. A product that brings out the vocation of natural stone, a living material in which to engrave stories and languages to be handed down, where leaves, curls, elegant fan-shaped forms and other motifs inspired by the plant world continue on from one another in the decorative pattern curated by the French designer who has imagined a unique interweaving of forms. A sculpture that is the fruit of complex development that combines technology and artisan skill. The area worked with a chisel is completed at the top by a ring with a matt finish, that continues inside with a soft, concave form, while the outlet is engraved into the marble. Emperador Light, Olive Grey, White Carrara and Bianco del Re are the four materials available to personalise the collection.
Colour is the dominant feature in the new collection of sinks from Simas, a shared colour palette that offers 19 shades with three new gloss finishes: Caramello (tending to powder pink), Capri (a deep shade of light blue between cyan and blue), Menta (an intense fresh green), Narciso (energetic yellow), Rubino (intense dark red), Grafite (a bright grey) as well as the classic gloss black and white, and an extensive range of matt finishes. Balloon, designed by the Simas Design Team is a collection of four ‘bowls’ with a friendly design, articulated in two square and two circular forms with different diameters and depths, full of light and colour also thanks to the brand new gloss colours with two round sinks, two square sinks, two freestanding pedestal sinks one round and the other square that accommodate respectively the round and square sink. In the picture, the square Balloon sink (45x45xH20cm) and Henges wall-hung sanitary fittings, in the gloss Rubino colour.
