Bathroom accessories were usually associated with shades of stainless steel and chrome. Nowadays, however, black actuating buttons for toilets and shower drains are more and more frequently chosen, which perfectly match the fashionable fixtures in this color. Another noticeable trend is a kind of renaissance of white buttons. They fit perfectly into modern arrangements and we can combine them with color-matched grates or caps for bathtubs and shower trays. Viega has consistently developed the concept of black and white products in different design and material variants.
Thoughtful selection of accessories has a significant impact on the consistency and attractiveness of the entire bathroom design. In addition to design issues, color, of course, plays a huge role. Black and white details, made of high-quality materials, give the interior a unique character. Classic white always remains elegant and timeless. It is perfect for monochromatic arrangements. Black products with refined surfaces, such as actuating buttons or linear drains, are distinctive accents that attract attention. Viega offers a wide range of solutions to take full advantage of the potential of these colors.

Push button actuation - an important detail
Expressive lines, perfect geometry and hand-pleasing haptic effects - these are the features that distinguish Visign for Moreand Visign for Style buttons. Many models in these series are also offered in shades of black and white. The wide variety in terms of design and materials used, allows you to choose a product that perfectly suits your particular bathroom.

The Visign for Style 23 and Visign for Style 24 pushbuttons, for example, are available as glossy or matte black, in ABS plastic or glass-imitating acrylic, as well as in versions combining both types of surfaces or incorporating elements of a different color. These models convince with their original design, which was awarded the prestigious iF Design Award. In the case of the first one, an interesting accent is the oval keys, ending flush with the edge of the entire tile. The second surprises with its unusual layout of keys, which have been placed in the center, in a vertical arrangement. Both keys are also offered in classic Alpine white.
Very interesting design solutions can be found in the Visign for More series. Laser-cut from a single piece of metal, the Visign for More 201 button is available in the original shade of matte black or glossy white. The distinctive feature of the Visign for More 204 model, made of black stainless steel, on the other hand, is a minimalist, narrow strip, replacing the classic keys. The unique design has earned both of these products the industry's highly regarded Red Dot Design Award. The buttons are electronically activated, further enhancing the comfort of use.

Black and white accents in the shower
Linear drains allow a great deal of flexibility in the design of the shower area. Here, too, we don't have to limit ourselves to stainless steel and chrome. Viega offers visually appealing solutions in black or white, so that we can perfectly match the drain to the floor tiles.
Advantix Vario is a true classic and winner of many rankings in the category of linear drains, offered in floor or wall versions. Its length can be smoothly adjusted by cutting it to any size in the range of 300-1200 mm. The hallmark of this product is a minimalist, extremely narrow stainless steel grate, available in matte black and white.

Advantix Cleviva is a relatively new solution, combining the unique design possibilities of a linear drain with the practical advantages of a point drain. Here, water is drained in a narrow, decorative stainless steel profile into a central drain. The drain can be installed anywhere in the shower area, such as in the middle or against the wall itself. The profiles are available in several colors, including brushed black, in line with the latest design trends.

Harmony or contrast
In the case of bathtubs and shower trays, most customers opt for white, while the external elements of the drain and overflow sets, as well as the caps, are offered in chrome versions as standard. However, this is not the only option. Viega has an assortment of elegant accessories in white or matte black. This allows us to achieve the effect of a uniform surface or bet on a strong, distinctive contrast. In addition, black elements fit perfectly in bathrooms where fittings in the same color are also installed.
