Bathroom-Review-HiB-launches-new-collections-Bastille

Bathroom manufacturer HiB has launched its latest collections focusing on space-saving solutions for the bathroom.

Small bathrooms and cloakrooms are the inspiration behind this season’s launch, thanks to the ongoing trend for more compact spaces. Adding a second bathroom or cloakroom can increase the value of a house by 6 percent (Nationwide), and Pinterest searches for “downstairs bathrooms” have seen an increase of 60 percent in recent months.

Along with innovative, space-saving bathroom solutions, HiB’s latest launch also introduces 13 new ranges, including mirrors, cabinets, furniture, basins, brassware, accessories, and entirely new products such as handheld bidets. 

Bastille – Uniquely Designed

Pictured top, the new Bastille collection of mirrors and cabinets features a uniquely designed mesh texture that will elevate any space with its standout styling. 

Available in black chrome or brushed brass, Bastille combines modern functionality with a distinct aesthetic and features innovative technology such as colour-temperature illumination and a heated pad to reduce condensation.

Available in two sizes, Bastille is the ultimate combination of style and substance.

Tranquil – Simple Styling

HiB’s popular Tranquil furniture range has been refreshed. With the introduction of two new finishes and additional on-trend colour choices, it now offers even more versatility and style to meet consumers’ needs. 

Tranquil combines functionality with sophisticated aesthetics and offers a series of wall-hung and floor-standing options, along with a range of finishes to complement different bathroom styles and sizes.

Cayla – Compact Storage

Designed for smaller spaces, the Cayla range of mirrored cabinets has been designed to fit effortlessly into compact bathroom spaces.

With a sleek 10cm depth, Cayla (left) is perfect for ensuites and cloakrooms where space is limited. The mirrored finish complements any existing bathroom furniture. With extra features such as LED illumination and a heated pad to reduce condensation, this range ensures that even the smallest of bathrooms can be a modern, desirable space.

Ash Chilver, Product Director at HiB, said: “With the trend towards enhancing the home by adding additional spaces such as cloakrooms and ensuites, we understand how homeowners need to be savvy with their bathroom spaces and are thrilled to launch our new collections that address these challenges.

“HiB’s in-house product development team’s commitment to design excellence has ensured the collections blend both form and function so that homeowners can incorporate the latest styles and colours, regardless of their space.”

Targeted use of materials creates unique dream bathrooms

Bathroom-Review-Duravit_Vitrium_by_Christian_Werner.

Duravit explores how materials can impact design. Whether selecting velvety cast-mineral materials or distinctive natural patterns, designers can raise the bar for bathroom design.

Intriguing textures, the best materials, and bespoke surfaces can create a personalised atmosphere highlighting individual design styles. A harmonious mix of materials can be achieved by comparing the different effects of the various elements used and how they interact.

Glass: lightness and transparency

Glass conveys a feeling of spaciousness and freedom and helps to create an elegant and airy atmosphere in any room. The Vitrium bathroom, designed by Christian Werner (pictured top), skillfully places this effect centre stage: the smoke-coloured glass fronts lend the furniture a light, almost floating appearance. Conversely, the black textured glass fronts combined with the wooden carcass on Sebastian Herkner’s Zencha range imbue the bathroom with a sophisticated elegance.

This makes glass a true all-rounder, which is especially effective when combined with other materials.

Natural stone: pure beauty

Choosing natural stone brings an element of nature into the bathroom. Natural stone conveys unique qualities with its individual colour nuances, textures, and patterns. A distinctive stone panel in three different tones brings a natural, timeless constancy to the Qatego designer bathroom range by Studio F. A. Porsche.

Bathroom-Review-Duravit-Qatego_by_Studio_F.A.

Metal: a variety of interpretations

Metal’s currency in the furniture sector is partly due to its versatility. With a range of different variants, the material can provide an extra-special look in any bathroom. For instance, a minimalistic piece of metal furniture can create a futuristic and pared-down impression or a gentle and softer effect can be produced when combined with wood.

The Viu/XViu model perfectly exemplifies how a sleek metal frame can mix with a delicately worked ceramic basin to create a washbasin with sculptural style. In turn, the Aurena bathroom range blends Italian elegance with a touch of modern industrial style by combining the metal frame either with ceramic panels for a marbled look or embossed ebony to create a highly elegant ambience.

Wood: cosy warmth

Surfaces with a wooden aesthetic imbue the interior design with warmth more than virtually any other raw material. Décor surfaces with a wooden texture make rooms homely and comfortable, creating a calming and relaxed atmosphere. Their natural colour palette makes them a perfect match for other surfaces, always fitting in while remaining unobtrusive. Above all, combining a wooden vanity unit and a ceramic or cast-mineral washbasin creates a sense of timeless elegance.

Ceramic: undisputed bathroom classic

Robust, durable, and easy-to-clean ceramic is practical and looks great. The innovative material DuraCeram® enables washbasins with extremely thin walls and precise dimensions to be manufactured without affecting quality and durability. A case in point is the washbasins of the Luv range, featuring clear contours and edges. They can be interpreted in various ways: sometimes elegant, sometimes minimalistic, but always unique and a design statement.

Cast mineral: tactile newcomer

There are many reasons why washbasins and bathtubs made from cast mineral are becoming increasingly popular. The unique feature of DuroCast, the cast-mineral material developed by Duravit, is the velvety matt
surface that looks elegant, and allows extremely precise shapes to be crafted.

DuroCast feels extraordinary to the touch and brings a warm yet elegant atmosphere into the bathroom, it can be perfectly combined with other materials such as wood and glass.

New addition to the STAGELINE furniture collection

Bathroom-Review-KEUCO_STAGELINE_2024

KEUCO has introduced a new addition to its popular STAGELINE furniture collection – a vanity unit now available in 1400 mm and is ideal for two washbasins, providing twice as much space for families, couples and individuals who like additional room. With a second wash area, you not only have a practical solution, but the stylish washbasin adds a distinctive accent to the bathroom.

Available in two versions: without tap holes, if the preference is for wall spout fittings or with tap holes for two single-lever mixers. This, along with the option of black or white ceramic washbasins, gives flexibility in design, especially when combining them with different furniture styles.

With the STAGELINE collection, you can create a variety of design themes for the bathroom. The furniture takes centre stage, combining timeless, beautiful design with warmer accents. The visual highlight of the series is an open, illuminated storage shelf, perfect for showcasing decorative items and favourite products. The warm-white LED lighting (3000 kelvin) is controlled by a capacitive touch sensor on the furniture, and the shelf includes practical features, such as the socket integrated into the shelf and a USB and USB-C charging point. This is positioned in the middle so the connections can be conveniently accessed from both wash areas.

Developed by the Tesseraux + Partner design agency in Potsdam, KEUCO’s comprehensive STAGELINE furniture series is characterised by modern linearity and straightforward elegance with a tone-in-tone look. The glass fronts and furniture bodies are the same colour, exuding an aura of calm and harmony.

Even fans of white and anthracite will find a match, whether brilliant lustre or velvety matt; the furniture’s glass fronts bring a touch of elegance to the bathroom.

Filigree glass fronts with no handles

With attention to detail, the STAGELINE furniture collection features a protruding glass front at the top that serves as a handle for opening and closing drawers, equipped with soft-close functionality, closing gently and quietly.

The vanity unit is perfect for those who appreciate tidiness. With the drawer and optional interior set, intelligent and optimum use of space in the cabinet is assured. For clever storage space organisation, the interior set can be arranged flexibly from four different sizes, and the dark and practical liner mat provides a slip-resistant surface.

More STAGELINE furniture

For those who need extra storage, STAGELINE offers three additional furniture products: a tall unit and a medium single-door or double-door unit. The tall unit has an aura of refinement with its illuminated shelf compartment in the middle. Bottles, jars or decorative elements can be spotlighted here, too, just as in the vanity unit. All cabinets incorporate soft-close hinges for gentle closing and premium, easy-to-care-for glass shelves inside. Combining these with other fittings and accessories from KEUCO ensures versatile and multi-faceted bathroom design options.

Living La Dolce Vita – Ideal Standard’s new range celebrates all things Italian

Bathroom-Review-Ideal-Stabdard-IS_Multisuite_Multiproduct_LaDolceVita

Bathroom manufacturer Ideal Standard has unveiled its new La Dolce Vita range, the latest addition to its design-led Atelier Collections. The new range has been designed by chief design officer Roberto Palomba and has been inspired by its famous namesake expression – the sweet life.

Whether it’s an ice-cold negroni on the Amalfi coast or a dive into the turquoise waters of Sicily, the Italian lifestyle is all about indulging in beauty whenever you can. In 2024, Ideal Standard is allowing its customers to bring that beauty into their homes.

The collection features a complete bathroom solution – from vanities and vessels, toilets, bidets and bathtubs to mixer taps, shower products and accessories. Furthermore, the collection seamlessly integrates with Ideal Standard’s furniture selection and broader product range, all thanks to its Singular™ philosophy. This ensures designers and customers can explore and select elements that perfectly align with their vision and requirements.

Bathroom-Review-Ideal-Standard-Dolce-Vita

Aesthetically, La Dolce Vita’s beauty is carefully balanced between geometric shapes and forms inspired by the natural environment. The tapered shape and curved edges of the ceramic vanities and toilets in the collection elegantly separate them from the crowd. At the same time, the deep, flower-shaped vessel basins are instantly eye-catching in both square and round designs. The accompanying vanities are available in six sizes, including standout asymmetric models with a practical storage surface. As a statement piece, the freestanding bathtub commands the space in any bathroom but still echoes the understated elegance of a relaxed Italian lifestyle.

Fittings and accessories follow the same lead, with basin mixers, vessel mixers, wall-mounted models, and bath and shower mixers sharing the same design DNA. The shower systems feature a sleek stem-like design with minimalist curves. They are available in classic chrome or Ideal Standard’s durable PVD colours: brushed gold, magnetic grey and silver storm.

It isn’t just style where La Dolce Vita thrives. Behind the elegant exterior lies innovative Ideal Standard technology. WCs feature AquaBlade® technology (or RimLS+® on wall-hung bowls) for excellent flushing performance and improved hygiene, while the FirmaFlow® ceramic cartridges in the taps ensure durability.

La Dolce Vita is now available, to find out more about Ideal Standard’s Atelier Collections, please visit:  www.idealstandard.com

Roca introduces Tura collection in collaboration with Andreu Carulla

Bathroom-Review-TURA-Roca

Roca’s latest bathroom collection, Tura, was created in collaboration with designer Andreu Carulla, reflecting a fusion of design and sustainability. Inspired by Barcelona’s architectural heritage, Carulla’s Tura has soft finishes and natural textures reminiscent of the Mediterranean. The collection is complemented by durable ceramic, recycled cork, felt, and outdoor fabrics, showcasing Carulla’s mindful approach to environmental impact.

Tura seamlessly fits into various settings, whether a modern city apartment or a countryside dwelling. Its versatility allows it to harmonise with any interior design concept. Below, we highlight its notable features.

Washbasins

Tura’s washbasins are characterised by bold, modern design elements. An impressive feature of the basins is the concealed drain, ingeniously integrated into the design to ensure a seamless, uninterrupted bowl. The collection boasts diverse shapes and sizes, including asymmetric countertop models that offer extra surface area on one side, perfect for storing essential toiletries.

Furniture

Tura furniture is available in several options, such as a version with a drawer and an open bottom shelf, another with two drawers, and an option with two drawers and open-slatted shelves inspired by Mediterranean shutters, Available in Matt White, Light Noble Grey, and Light Terracotta, the colour palette evokes the essence of the Mediterranean. A standout feature of these vanity units is the innovative integrated siphon, designed to maximise storage space without sacrificing functionality in the top drawer.

Small-space solutions

Good things come in small packages, and Tura’s stylish designs are available in a full range of sizes, including for compact bathrooms. For example, basins start from wall-hung models of 550 x 275mm and 450 x 360mm – and there are corresponding vanity units too.

Baths

The shape of the Tura bath is inspired by an architectural cantilever system, creating the illusion that it is floating in space. This effect is amplified by the option of an LED light around the base. The bath’s success lies in its being made from Roca’s composite Stonex®. This robust material allows for a spacious and light bath, with elegantly thin walls and a slim ridge around the edge which accommodates a useful wooden bath tray. From a practical point of view, Stonex® is also warm to the touch, anti-slip and easy to keep clean.

WCs & bidets

The Tura WCs and bidets come in wall-hung, floor-standing and close-coupled options, designed to blend into any bathroom space. The floor-standing models are 42cm high as standard for added comfort for older people. Furthermore, all ceramics are available with Roca’s antimicrobial Supraglaze® finish, which makes it difficult for dirt and limescale to stick to the surface, meaning it is easier to clean.

Accessories

The Tura collection stands out due to its added extras. For instance, the bath tray, essential for all long soaks, is made of FSC®-certified wood and designed to sit flush on the tub’s edge. For added comfort, the Tura bath also comes with a height-adjustable headrest, made of recycled outdoor fabric, which is quick-dry and mildew resistant. The headrest features a wooden counterweight for easy height adjustment. Finally, the collection includes recycled felt storage boxes specially designed for the open shelves. Available in two different sizes, these lightweight boxes come with a recycled cork lid that not only keeps contents dust-free but doubles as a shelf over the washbasins (below, left).

The Tura bath is made of Stonex®, a smooth composite; the basins, WCs and bidets are made of ceramic and come in Gloss White, Supraglaze® White and Matt White finishes; and the furniture is available in Off-White, Light Noble Grey and Light Terracotta.
