VitrA introduces the Voyage collection, a collaboration with the award-winning multi-disciplinary artist and designer Arik Levy.  

With more than 130 products available in the range, Voyage is one of VitrA’s most extensive collections to date, offering endless possibilities for customisation. The vast number of furniture and sanitaryware pieces can be individually tailored using the extensive range of colour, material and size options, and by taking advantage of the variety of horizonal and vertical units and wall panels to create the ideal layout to suit any bathroom space or style. 

Inspired by his time living and working in Japan, Arik Levy worked closely with VitrA’s in-house design team to create a bathroom collection that allows both mind and body to relax. He comments: “Taking time for ourselves in the bathroom each day can be extremely purifying. Our daily habits are deeprooted, but I hope that the Voyage collection will help us to indulge ourselves and make time to enjoy our daily rituals”.  

The collection is entirely wall-hung, making it exceptionally versatile and ideal for small or awkward spaces. Both open and closed storage options are available – from hooks and open shelving, through to mirrored wallboxes and a variety of storage units – and each piece can be positioned anywhere in the room to suit individual needs. Coordinating accessories including a heated towel rail and a toilet roll and brush holder is also available to complete the look. 

Voyage bathroom furniture is available in five different dual colour finishes, including flamed grey and natural oak, planked sand and stone grey, and flamed grey and forest green. 

Cast from hygienic and easy-to-clean ceramic, the Voyage collection includes a range of countertop and wall-hung washbasin units which offer a convenient combination of wet, dry and semi-wet areas, blurring the lines between a traditional bowl and a vanity unit.  

This collaboration is the latest in VitrA’s long-standing programme of working with world-renowned designers to create distinctive and modern bathroom collections. Arik Levy joins a group of designers such as Ross Lovegrove, Sebastian Conran, Terri Pecora, and most recently, Claudio Bellini, each of whom has worked closely with VitrA’s in-house team to create bathrooms that reflect their own vision and aesthetic style.  

Levent Giray, Managing Director of VitrA UK, comments: “The Voyage collection highlights the importance of taking time to practice self-care on a daily basis and we are delighted to see it in production. Arik Levy worked closely with our in-house design team to ensure that his vision was expertly manufactured and engineered to be as versatile as possible, ensuring maximum convenience and choice for our customers.” 

Saneux, best known for modern bathroom furniture, has branched out by launching a traditional ceramics and furniture range which combines traditional craft with contemporary design. Comprising of ceramic basins and carefully hand-crafted floor-standing units, the SOFIA range is unlike any other traditional bathroom furniture range on the market. 

As most traditional bathroom furniture ranges feature simple and clean shaker doors, Saneux’s designers wanted to provide users with a more detailed and delicate traditional collection. This is evident by the finer details visible on the units and in the colours they’re available in: cotton white, dove grey and Prussian blue; all elegant and soft finishes that can fit into any bathroom style seamlessly. 

Although this is a stunning traditional range by design, the durability of these units has not been compromised. Modern-day technology has ensured that the furniture is not susceptible to water damage by having 8 individual layers of anti-fingerprint lead-free paint, allowing SOFIA to be well suited even in the busiest of bathrooms.

The SOFIA floor-standing door units are available in 40cm and 60cm configurations, perfect for ensuites and family bathrooms. Both sizes provide essential storage space plus extra with the addition of a hatch compartment. 

The basins compatible with the units come in 3, 1 and no tap hole options, allowing a variety of choice when it comes to pairing the unit with traditional brassware. To complete the look, matching framed mirrors are available in the same colour options as the units themselves.

The range doesn’t stop at furniture, as it features a stunning ceramic pedestal, chrome 60cm washstand and a rimless close-coupled WC. Essentially, Saneux’s new SOFIA collection provides you with the perfect traditional bathroom space.
