Cutting-edge bathroom designs

You don't need a large space to prioritise self-care. The retractable S1 Sauna from Klafs adapts to its surroundings, ensuring there's room for what truly matters – wellness and tranquillity. The new, expandable model provides ample space for a soothing sauna session, delivered at the touch of a button in a matter of seconds. When retracted, the S1 Sauna has a depth of just 60 cm, making it no deeper than a standard wardrobe. When fully extended, however, the sauna cabin is 160 cm deep. A standard 230 V power supply, found in every home, is all that's needed to run the S1 Sauna. Workspaces, hallways, guest rooms, large houses, small flats – the S1 Sauna slots effortlessly into all these settings.

Aquahalo from Dornbracht is an innovative, one-of-a-kind design for bathrooms and spas. Developed by designer Michael Neumayr, Aquahalo is reminiscent of a classicist crystal chandelier and offers three refreshing spray patterns, facilitated by a ceiling-mounted light fitting and shower head. The harmonious combination of light and water delivers a feel-good factor and invigorates the senses.

"A chandelier that used to hang in my parents' dining room was my initial source of inspiration," Neumayr explains. "The sparkle of the lead crystals and the way they reflected the light always reminded me of fizzy water when I was a child. So, Aquahalo is a contemporary, minimalist interpretation of a Gustavian chandelier."

The Ago 185 freestanding washbasin from Antoniolupi is a prime example of accomplished elegance in bathroom design. A circular basin with a slim rim seamlessly transitions into a tapered cylindrical pedestal. Crafted from stylish marble, the washbasin comes complete with a drain pipe, plug, siphon and flexible hose for straightforward installation. A slender appearance, paired with the exquisite choice of materials, makes Ago 185 the centrepiece of any modern bathroom, blending timeless elegance with convenient functionality.

The Happy D.2 washstands and washbasins add a touch of feminine sophistication to rooms of all dimensions. From generously sized double basins through to inset basins, countertop basins and hand wash basins, the range is unfailingly modern. Distinctive shapes – clean lines, gentle curves and a signature rim – are a hallmark of the entire Happy D.2 collection. The optional WonderGliss coating makes cleaning especially straightforward. Thanks to the water-repellent finish, dirt and limescale can be effortlessly washed away.

Two new colour options accentuate the unique charm of the Happy D.2 Plus basins: Anthracite Matt and a striking two-tone combination featuring a White High Gloss interior and an Anthracite Matt exterior.

A bathroom brimming with colour? Why not? That said, anyone who finds a brightly coloured bathroom a bit too daring can always add a touch of colour here and there with the taps. The Nu collection is a case in point. It features three different tap handles – Pin, Dome and Stripes – which are available in six glossy colours, namely green, blue, yellow, black, white and chrome. The bursts of colour on the taps and their handles are a delightful accompaniment to your bathroom routine, allowing even white bathroom ceramics to make a strong design statement with minimal effort.
