Hoesch - Baths

There are more than thirty elements in the Duravit series, ranging from baths, shower units and basins to towel rails and liquid soap dispensers. Each of these elements is generated by a consistent geometry based on two adjacent circles. All the sanitary elements are made from high-quality acrylic, and the showers and baths are made from vacuum-formed acrylic.

The bath has an optional whirlpool system and is available in free-standing and built-in versions or with a wall attachment. Both the basins and baths are generous in capacity but have a light appearance because of the extremely fine profile of their rims, which also aids easy access to the bathtub. The shower unit has a transparent surround and optional side-jets for hydromassage. The range also includes one and two-person steam baths.

The storage units - wall-mounted mirrored cabinets and larger free-standing cupboards for storing towels and bathrobes - follow the geometry of the sanitary elements. The curved doors of the cabinets have a wide opening angle, allowing especially easy access to their contents.

The series can be used in conjunction with a family of taps designed by the practice for Rubinetterie Stella. This Italian company has been manufacturing taps since 1882 and has a reputation for innovation and quality. The taps are available in a variety of forms and finishes suitable for a wide range of interiors. Exploiting a unique mechanism, the taps allow the user to control both water flow and temperature with unprecedented ease. The first five products in the range are a mono-command basin tap, a bidet tap, a kitchen tap, a bath tap and a thermostatic control.
