Bathrooms In Focus – Gessi 2024

By Declan Giles | Newsletter

Gessi believes in innovation as a means of fulfilling dreams and anticipating needs.

Not limiting itself to the invention of new stylistic solutions for interior design and well-being, Gessi stresses respect for the environment by incorporating new technologies, new production processes and new materials.

With this edition of Bathrooms In Focus we’re taking a look at the latest releases from this Italian house of style. Enjoy!

The Inverso collection marks a new phase in Gessi’s “woven metal” evolution, their stylistic signature.

The Diamantato (diamond) texture recalls the fluidity of water, the luminous waves struck by the sun’s rays and their sinuous movements.

Black metal, matte or brushed, combined with the rigorous lines of the Rigato decoration unmistakably gives the bathroom a certain solemnity.

The Ventaglio collection is characterised by fan like shapes with oriental references. Elements with progressive opening, which fully recall the shape and language of the fan itself.

The collection, available in all of Gessi’s finishes, seeks harmony in simplicity and invites the contemplation of objects with their fixed and interior life.

Learn More About Gessi Ventaglio

Gessi with the Habito collection allows you to ‘fashion’ your own tailor-made habitat.

The “Woven Metal” concept is again beautifully utilised with the unique Gessi patterns: Cesello, Diamamtato, Intreccio, Rigato and Trame. Coupled together with the numerous Gessi finishes to create a stunning bathroom collection.

Gessi’s expands their “total look” offering: For the first time Gessi customises the hardware of the shower enclosures, thus bringing the functional components to a higher aesthetic level.

Gessi brings elements that are generally hidden into the spotlight, enhancing their details and turning them into statement pieces.

Bathrooms In Focus – Milan Design Week

By Declan Giles | Newsletter

Launched in Milan in 1961 as a vehicle for promoting Italian exports of furnishing and accessories, the Salone Internazionale del Mobile is the global benchmark event for the furnishing and design sector.

Initially as a subsection of the Salone, the International Bathroom Exhibition became an exhibition in its own right in 2006, reflecting the evolution of the domestic bathroom, formerly a strictly functional space, into a dedicated sanctuary for relaxation and wellness.

In this Bathrooms In Focus we’re taking a look at some of the highlights from the exhibition. Enjoy!

Represented in the Jacqueline and Perle collections, for Gessi “haute culture” is the expression of the utmost of experimentation in terms of material, form and technique, which is realised in the enhancement of the creativity of those who design and those who forge its lines every day, infusing them with passion and manual skills of excellence.

Bathrooms In Focus – Sensor Taps

By Declan Giles | Newsletter

Previously utilisted mostly in public settings, sensor taps are becoming ever more popular in the home as well.

Aside from user convenience, they guarantee a higher level of hygiene as non-contact taps reduce the risk of germ spreading via surface contact. A helpful consequence is reduced regularity in cleaning too.

Another reason for their growing popularity, smart fittings are more efficient. People with conventional taps often use significantly more water than is actually needed. Sensor fittings provide only what is required, when it is required, minimising waste and saving energy costs.

Gessi sensor taps provide refined elegance and sophisticated design. With options incorporating the sensor in the actual spout, tap body or a separate plate depending on preference.

What’s more they’re available in many finishes for further customisation.

Learn More About Gessi

Electronic basin mixers from Hansgrohe Axor have ideal hygienic and energy-saving features.

Minimising resource consumption. Just like the mixer design. Reduced to the bare essentials. Even the sensor technology is discreetly integrated into the mixer.

Learn More About Hansgrohe Axor

In all Hansgrohe sensor fittings the on/off function is carried out in a 200-millimeter sensor area, so that the fittings do not need to be touched.

They are therefore particularly hygienic and at the same time require less cleaning.

Learn More About Hansgrohe

Harmonious proportions with an utterly contemporary look make Zucchetti sensor mixers an elegant product for people that appreciate the latest design trends and recognise beauty at a glance.
