• Combinations of metal and glass for a contemporary ambience
• Ceramic and cast-mineral washbasins round off the material mix
Intriguing textures, the very best materials, and fascinating surfaces create a unique atmosphere that highlights every personal design style. The most harmonious mix of materials can be achieved by considering the different effects created by the various elements used and the way they interact.
Glass: lightness and transparency
Glass coveys a feeling of spaciousness and freedom and creates an elegant and airy atmosphere in any room. The Vitrium bathroom, designed by Christian Werner, skillfully places this effect center stage: the smoke colored 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 sensual elegance. One thing is clear: glass is a true all-rounder and is especially effective when combined with other materials.
Natural stone: pure beauty
Choosing natural stone brings a piece of true nature into the bathroom. With its individual color nuances, textures, and patterns, natural stone conveys a unique set of qualities. A distinctive stone panel in three color nuances, impressive in its natural, timeless constancy, is used for the first time in the Qatego designer bathroom range by Studio F. A. Porsche.
Metal: a variety of interpretations
Metal’s currency in the furniture sector is due not least to its versatility and, 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 cozy effect can be produced when combined with wood.
The Viu/XViu model is a perfect demonstration of how a sleek metal frame can blend with a delicately worked ceramic basin to create a sculptural washbasin.
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: cozy warmth
Surfaces with a wooden aesthetic imbue interior design with naturalness and warmth: more than virtually any other raw material, décor surfaces with a wooden texture instantly make rooms more homely and comfortable and create a calming and relaxed atmosphere. Its natural color palette makes it a perfect match to other surfaces, always fitting in while remaining unobtrusive. Above all, the combination of a wooden vanity unit and ceramic or cast-mineral washbasin creates a sense of timeless elegance.
Ceramic: undisputed bathroom classic
Robust, durable, and easy to clean: ceramic is not only practical, but also looks the part. The innovative material DuraCeram® means washbasins with extremely thin walls and precise dimensions can be manufactured without affecting quality and durability. A case in point are the washbasins of the Luv range, featuring clear edges and contours that can be interpreted in various ways: sometimes elegant, sometimes minimalistic, but always unique and a design statement in their own right.
Cast mineral: tactile newcomer
There are good 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 not only looks elegant, but also allows extremely precise shapes to be realized. What’s more, it feels extraordinary to the touch! DuroCast brings a warm yet elegant atmosphere into the bathroom and can be ideally combined with other materials such as wood and glass.
