Duravit caters for the natural look

01 December 2018

Duravit, a leading manufacturer of designer bathrooms, offers a range of solutions to create a bathroom setting that is inspired by nature. The company’s premium quality products can be combined harmoniously to design bathroom interiors that are tailored to the user’s personality while being timeless.

“Organic forms and natural materials, fresh greenery in flower pots or by the window – all combine a range of textures, colours and surfaces to create harmonious and vibrant interiors,” says a spokesman for the Germany-based company.

For instance, the company’s gently curved Cape Cod washbasins form a perfect symbiosis with consoles made of solid natural wood and chrome. This bathroom series by Philippe Starck and Duravit – offered in a high-grade porcelain finish – features elegant, fine edges that measure only 5 mm in thickness. Made possible by the innovative DuraCeram material, it provides elegance without compromising quality, robustness or ease of care, says the company. The bowl is available in three different shapes: round, square and tri-oval, allowing individuality in the design of the bathroom.

ME by Starck appeals to every style – pure, elegant, natural or raw.

Meanwhile, ME by Starck, a new bathroom series also designed by Starck, aims to appeal to every style – pure, elegant, natural or raw – by creating a modern yet timeless bathroom series that reduces its design entirely and focuses on the user’s personality and individuality instead.

“The pure aesthetics of ME by Starck offers maximum design scope and, as such, forms the perfect backdrop for living greenery,” the spokesman says.

Other fittings from Duravit that complement the ‘natural look’ include the Paiova 5 bathtub and the Stonetto shower tray with the soft, velvety feel of a stone hollowed out by water.

“Similarly, design classics such as the Vero programme can be perfectly integrated into a natural bathroom to introduce contrasts,” he adds.

The Vero ceramic series is a modern design classic that has now been a Duravit bestseller for more than a decade: its consistently rectangular design is not only elegant but also timeless, the spokesman points out.

Authentic furniture surfaces such as the solid-wood console from XSquare in the American Walnut finish underline the natural look, as do accessories and care products made from natural ingredients. Also, generously-proportioned areas of glass remove the boundary between indoors and outdoors – making the early-morning glance in the XSquare mirror a truly invigorating experience, the spokesman concludes.

XSquare – designed by Kurt Merki Jr – offers various combination options and matches the DuraSquare, Vero Air, ME by Starck and P3 Comforts ceramic series. Both the console washbasin vanity units and the XSquare furniture washbasins are available in five widths and also wall-mounted and floor-standing variants.
