In a previous post Furniture Fashion reviewed three awesome saunas and steam showers from Kos who received design guidance from the well seasoned team of Roberto and Ludovica Palomba. Here are some equally stylish bath tub and whirlpool offerings that have style and comfort in mind, and I'm sure one of them just may be the perfect compliment to the Kos selection of saunas. The line of bath tubs can be used in a free standing application or built in as desired, and are available in round, rectangular and even triangle shapes allowing your room to be outfitted with the best option to compliment your floor plan. My favorite tub is the round Geo 180 that combines a whirlpool option with a cascading ceiling mounted shower head that doubles as a soothing mood light. As you can see Kos is on the forefront of modern hydrotherapy design for those who value their private time.

Zucchetti's reputation precedes itself drawing upon Italian design to create beautiful chrome fixtures. Featured here are four pieces from their collection.

Here not only is there a unique shape to the fixture, but the water flowing out produces a shape different than what we are used to seeing. More information at: Zucchetti.

Nothing creates a great looking bathroom like the elegant curves of a bathtub and sink hewn from a piece of natural marble. You may agree that your relaxing time is among your most important possessions and should include luxurious surroundings. I Conci takes the design of modern bath rooms to a new level with their clearly defined and very bold shapes. On one hand the Nilo series utilizes a rounded triangular shape for a dramatic statement, while their Colorado and Niagara collections use opposing outer straight lines and inner rounded shapes for a distinctive and stunning visual appeal. I Conci combines modern technology with old world craftsmanship to create bath rooms to endure the test of time like fine art.
Turkish manufacturer VitrA teamed up with well seasoned designer Ross Lovegrove to create the MOD series of lavatories, plumbing fixtures, and bathroom accessories that live up to their name. This very modern collection makes a big impact from small scale products like the pedestal sink with handy shelf in a subtle steel or bold contrasting green. The 26" sink also comes in a wall mounted version if that suites the room better. The collection also features a very unique toilet with defined lines and several complimentary plumbing fixtures .VitrA founded in 1942 has become a global brand and a leader in earthenware that transcends ordinary. Their vision sees the bathroom as a recess for tending the spirit and pampering the body, a vibrant, adaptable, fluid room where flowing water is part of the furniture.
