Ceramic bathroom fixtures

New generation of ceramic bathroom fixtures

The ceramic in compact paste is the main material for the realization of many products, first of all the bathroom fixtures, thanks to its qualities of hygiene and water resistance. Among its qualities, however, it can be ascribed also to being able to be molded into many different forms, so as to give to designers the opportunity to express their creativity with new solutions.

And we have seen, among other things, at the recent Cersaie in Bologna the vitality level of the ceramic material, despite the assault by the new hyper technological materials. And still on the subject of creativity and design solution, in the fair we saw entire collections of ceramic bathroom fixtures dedicated to the experts of the architecture and furniture sectors, or to the designers and architects who want to see their ideas faithfully translated, once down in the particular of the practical choice of the pieces of furniture.

Excellent ally, from this point of view, is the Architectura collection by Villeroy & Boch, which allows a truly comprehensive service, at 360°, to furnish the bathroom: designers, architects and installers have access to a full range of ceramic pieces with innovative, attractive prices and comprehensive of complete ongoing assistance.

The pieces are modular. The sinks are available in round, oval or square shapes, all the three versions of installation: free-standing, recessed and undermount. Obviously the selection is completed by coordinated toilets.

The source of inspiration for Oliver Conrad, who oversaw the project, were the geometric shapes of circle, ellipse and rectangle, with which you can deal with any planning hypothesis of the spaces, in total freedom.

From the technical point of view, the surface-mounted washbasins Architectura are easy to install, thanks to the universal fixing and Villeroy & Boch that allows, with a single type of cut for all types of material, to fix the batroom fixtures in a perfect way and this results in a freedom of action at the project level, in both residential and hospitality building. All sinks are enamelled outside, even those in built-in or undermount version, plus they are combined with the collection of taps Cult.

The WC Architectura is equipped with the innovative function of rinsing DirectFlush that, for the same performance, consumes just 3 to 4.5 liters of water. In addition, its conduction system of the water allows you to have better results than the international standard EN 977, as the vase is fully washed, without water splashes over the edge.

The enameled surface makes the cleaning quick and easy, and this can be further improved thanks to the presence of the surface Ceramicplus and of the seat with QuickRelease. The WC solution on the floor can also be integrated with the built-in bidet function L ViClean.

Essential design ceramic bathroom fixtures

We have seen how the new collections of ceramic bathroom fixtures emphasize the trend towards a simple and elegant design, more attentive to the function than looking to exasperated particular form. This does not mean abandoning the study of new forms, but to simply pay more attention to the basic needs to be met, with few concessions to the show aspect of the product.

In this context, purist and sober shapes which renounce the unnecessary and that, however, enhance the combination with rigor and elegance, never making it trivial, is part of the Premium Memento Collection, by Villeroy & Boch. There are several types of basins, including suspended washbasins, free standing, semi-recessed and hand washing.

WC and bidet Memento are both suspended. The toilet, in particular, comes standard with the invisible fixing system SupraFix 2.0. The available colors for this collection are: ultra bright white, opaque Edelweiss, Glossy Black and the possibility of adding the decor New Glory, while the recommended tap is Just.

We remain focused on the theme of essential design and rigorous and elegant shapes and we see the new proposals by Duravit, in particular the collection Durastyle. Password: flexibility.

Each bathroom is designed, in plan view, in a different way, just as each of us uses it in a personal way. This is the reason why the adaptability of the single pieces must be maximum, in order to customize your bathroom space and make it unique.

Durastyle, designed by Matteo Thun & Partners, is a comprehensive collection of bathroom fixtures compact and intelligent, characterized by extreme visual lightness and simple shapes, from the narrow edge of the basin which is combined in a refined way with the outer blunted corner inward . The basic rectangular shape gives rise to large areas of support in various types of wash basins, from the console to the hand-washing, while the depth of the basin is more comfortable.

The toilet and the suspended floor are elegant and light thanks to the seat with the possibility of Softclose System or the electronic seat SensoWash®. The suspended vase without flushing rim allows for quick and easy cleaning and a perfect sanitisation.

DuraStyle is a collection suitable for any environment, in any available space and every taste. The formal language that Thun adopts is timeless, discreet, a classic of the future, and this is the reason why purists and latest design lovers like it. DuraStyle tip on the harmony of the whole rather than on the individual features of the single part.

Even the policy of fixing the price to be able to reach different needs of budget represents a variable not to underestimate. This, together with other features, make this collection ideal in the field of housing, but also of the contract, the new frontier of Made in Italy for Italy and abroad.
