Tub Time

Someday, I want a home with a beautiful view of the ocean.  I want my master-bedroom to look out over the sea and I want to build an alfresco bath-tub - someplace just off the master-bedroom, a place surrounded by beauty with lovely rocks and fragrant flowers to enhance the experience.

In the mean time, I found these incredible tubs to dream about ..

 Kos  


The Geo line is a range of new products which shine a new light on the bathtub.  All the models in the Geo line range are the fruit of extensive research into new shapes for the tub shell  Its gentle, innovative lines are designed to give new ergonomic support to the body.

Awards: Design Plus 2007 - Nomination German Design Award 2008

Ludovica-Roberto Palomba:
"Mind and body, in an almost mystical atmosphere that evokes primitive, ancestral feelings, finally find a true and profound equilibrium. This is the concept on which Geo 180 is based - bringing pleasure and joy to our daily rituals, so that each of us can find his primitive, ancestral self."


With lines that are uniquely innovative in the world of bathroom design, Geo 180, today, is universally recognized as an icon in "total wellness."

At the Salone del Mobile, Milan 2008, KOS presents a new outdoor edition of Geo 180, designed for total wellness and to be used alone or to be playfully shared.

Yet again, KOS proposes architectural and design products for every type of bathroom, and - finally - total wellness and comfort out of doors.







Sundeck from Duravit   is an indoor-outdoor bathtub with a cushioned cover.  When closed, the cushion serves a dual purpose: it keeps water warm while filling in and while not bathing, and it's used as a lounge.

Designed by Eoos Group, the freestanding Sundeck is an acrylic tub that is set in a wood veneer (for indoors) or weather-resistant laminate enclosure (for outdoors) with an overflow channel.  The marine-quality white plastic cushion can be folded into two head rests. Options and accessories include: air or whirlpool jets, LED lighting, a remote control, a matching bolster and a cushioned step.





Blue Moon.

Bathing not in a tub but in a pool.

The more water, the more space, the more depth the better. With its square corpus and round tub, the Blue Moon whirlpool looks like a pool; and with its water depth of 530 mm it feels like one, too – despite occupying an area of just 140 x 140 cm. Immerse yourself in water with mood-setting coloured lights; the body is completely surrounded by water with only the back touching the tub, giving a pleasant feeling of weightlessness. Bathing in a pool? Letting yourself go? Floating? Pure relaxation? It’s not easy to describe the feeling. Suffice to say that Blue Moon is a unique bathing experience.
