japanese designer toshiyuki kita has collaborated with japan based-manufacturer INAX
to create ‘froth’, a bathtub that looks to offer a new bathing experience.

realized through the technologies of INAX, the tub contains a unique component which
allows for the production of substance-safe bubbles. a layer of foam, which enters through
a separate spout acts as a lid in keeping the water warm and the steam inside. distinctive in
its appearance, the bathtub features contoured sides that are designed to engulf the body
and provide maximum comfort to the user.
