HOME BATHROOM
The bathroom at home is a place of peace and relaxation. A place where we feel comfortable and safe. The trick is to find a compromise between small size and usefulness and aesthetics.
PUBLIC BATHROOM
Here functionality, ecology and, above all, hygiene matter. Convenient solutions for people with disabilities must appear in the design.
BATHROOM OF THE FUTURE
Imagination knows no boundaries. Extravagance or minimalism? Decide for yourself and tell us your vision of the future.
