In recent years, luxury bathrooms have become a top priority for homeowners, with many seeking to create a spa-like oasis in their own homes for the ultimate in relaxation.

A luxury bathroom is not only a place to get ready in the morning, but is also a space to relax and unwind after a long day; a place to pamper oneself and indulge in a little self-care. A well-designed bathroom can improve mood, reduce stress and increase overall well-being, and so it’s no surprise that the desire for spa bathrooms have skyrocketed.

So, how do one create a luxurious bathroom? Certain must-have features have the ability to elevate the space from merely functional to an oasis that will quickly become your new favorite room in the house.

Through elegant design and specially finished elements, AXOR Suite basins and bathtub, designed by world-renowned creator Philippe Starck, bring harmony and a personal touch to any bathroom interior. Each piece is made with SolidSurface material for resistance and longevity, while smooth contours, small radii and ‘soft’ inner basins, devoid of lines or ridges, ensure a clean modern look with universal appeal. At the same time, specially finished elements—a shelf on the bathtub, a wrap-around surface on the washbasin sides— allow users to express their individuality.

Rectangular or circular, the AXOR Suite basins are timeless, universal, elegant forms, characterized by small radii, soft and smooth inner basins. They are encased in Matt Black, Chrome or one of the polished or brushed AXOR FinishPlus finishes, creating another luxurious option for a personal touch in the bathroom. “The key words for the future and ecology are longevity, transmission and heritage. The new AXOR Suite washbasin combines metal and SolidSurface — a highly technological material symbolizing eternity and elegance. It is designed to last forever”, says Philippe Starck.

Its size alone makes the AXOR Suite bathtub the centerpiece in most bathrooms. In the elegant AXOR Suite model, Philippe Starck has not only put emphasis on a timeless, universal design, but also on durable materials. The use of SolidSurface, a durable, stain-resistant surface derived of natural materials and pure acrylic resin meet Starck’s claim: “Designed to last forever.” Non-porous and easy-to-clean, SolidSurface is ideal for environments that require the highest standards of hygiene. The bathtub, circular at the ends and straight on the sides, is generously sized at 1900 x 830 mm. With AXOR Suite, one’s favorite bath-time objects, from books to personal care items, find their place on an optional orderable shelf. With a wide range of possible surface finishes, these special-finish elements can be selected in coordination with all other AXOR products in the bathroom, ensuring a holistic design language throughout.
