AXOR translates personalities into three distinctive bathroom designs

AXOR Shares Insights Around bathroom individualization

The bathroom has ceased to be a space solely dedicated to function; it is gradually becoming a place to express one’s wishes, desires and tastes as a distinctly private space. A ‘bathroom with personality’ was AXOR‘s brief when it came to modelling three exclusive conceptual spaces for well-being, where each ambience portrays and expresses the individual art of distinction. Including an 80s-inspired bold design, a calming sea-side project in Lisbon, as well as Cape Town’s earthen tones and warmth, the different aesthetics speak volumes of the diversity in personalization that an intimate space can acquire.

‘Our products are designed by personalities and for personalities’

Founded in 1993 with the mission of bringing character into the bathroom, AXOR is specially positioned to facilitate the conversation of ‘Distinctive’, which is deeply rooted in the brand’s own approach to design, collaboration, and innovation. For more than 25 years, the company has collaborated with world-renowned designers to shape water-related spaces that express the unique personalities of its users.

‘Our products are designed by personalities and for personalities. This is reflected in the AXOR product portfolio, which stands apart with its vast variety of styles. AXOR amplifies the possibilities for personal expression with AXOR FinishPlus, an array of exclusive colors, and takes individualization to the extreme with AXOR Signature, the ultimate in bespoke services,’ says Anke Sohn, Head of Global Brand Marketing AXOR.

AXOR’s ‘distinctive’ campaign touches on intimate luxury

AXOR ‘Distinctive’ shares some of the most important insights and perspectives surrounding the

individualization of private living spaces. With globalization advancing and a sense of sameness through standardized products and one-size-fits-all solutions, people everywhere seek more personal expressions of luxury, style and well-being. With this in mind, AXOR rises the demand of users to experience spaces and objects that reflect one’s own personality. Notably, bathrooms are of particular importance as the products people interact with and touch define the intimate act of self-care.

‘How can architects and interior designers better understand their clients’ personal evolving desires, developing distinctive and sustainable long-term solutions that give meaning and satisfaction for years to come? And how can their clients get to spaces designed for their very individual needs?’ asks Anke Sohn.

With ambience ‘A place to create one’s image’, the Singapore-situated bathroom celebrates the interplay of light and materials, from dark stone to slatted wood to shaped glass. The large circular mirror, wide washbasin and free-standing bathtub evoke a personality that is bold, authentic and decisive – distinctive attributes that find a natural reflection in the AXOR Edge faucets at the washbasin and bathtub. With its diamond-cut surfaces, finished here in Polished Gold Optic, the collection epitomizes individual style. The AXOR ShowerHeaven and AXOR Universal Rectangular Accessories contribute to the aesthetic with clear, rectilinear forms.

Concept ‘A place to be oneself’ is set in a private residence in Lisbon, characterized by a sense of freedom, flow and calm. Archways, windows and a generous open plan establish the bathroom as a significant architectural space. The use of travertine, creamy sandstone and a rich terrazzo flooring counterbalance the geometric forms and minimalist design. The context reflects a personality that is relaxed and grounded as well as rational. Finished in harmonious Brushed Bronze, the archetypal AXOR Starck faucets and AXOR Starck Nature Shower express the individual need for authenticity. An assortment of AXOR Universal Circular Accessories completes this aesthetic.

‘A place to inspire creativity’ balances Cape Town’s aesthetic through warmth and openness. Earthen tones, textured walls and abundant light set the stage for the individual and unexpected, from a free-standing bronzed bathtub to a concave mirror and a lounge chair fashioned from oversized tubular forms. With its harmonious mix of right angles and sensuous curves, the AXOR Citterio E collection is reflects a distinctive personality that balances opposites. A selection of AXOR Universal SoftSquare Accessories, which bring a soft and rounded touch to rectilinear forms, underlines the harmonious outcome.
