Depth begins on the surface
Structure lends bathroom furniture character and a new, sensuous quality
• Vertical lines as an established design feature in the bathroom
• Tactile furniture fronts animate calm surfaces and influence the spatial effect
• Haptic qualities make materials directly tangible
Firmly established in interior design for some years now, groove and line structures are now making their way into the bathroom, too. Designer bathroom manufacturer Duravit is taking up this design element in the bathroom furniture of the Balcoon, Zencha and Aurena ranges and applying it in an everyday context.
Embossed patterns lend motion to calm surfaces and endow furniture with a differentiated, three-dimensional look and feel.
Formative lines
The vertical lines change our perception of volume and proportion. Fine grooves lend structure to large fronts, make them appear lighter and create a subtle depth effect. Varying shadow effects occur, according to the light incidence. These effects provide furniture with various appearances throughout the course of the day and lend the room a lively, clear atmosphere.
Palpable quality
Alongside the visual effect, the look and feel comes more to the fore. The finely embossed fronts make us more consciously aware of the materials involved. Wood, décor and glass surfaces acquire more presence as a result, emphasizing high-quality, precision workmanship.
