Karim Rashid Heats Things Up For Caleido With His New Radiator Designs.

I simply cannot get over how rich the area of industrial design is when it comes to radiators. This is my fourth post on radiators and I simply keep finding more and more ones that I want to blog about.

Karim Rashid (who coincidentally curated an exhibit on design radiators at the MAD Museum in 2009) has now created his own for Caleido in his unmistakable style.

The new models, Kelvin (also referred to as Geiger) and Therme, designed by Rashid are wall-mountable and feature his graphic and vibrant imagery on steel plates.

Sculptor Hubert Reiber Creates Human Body Shaped Shower, The Aquanatass

You'll never have to shower alone again.
The Aquanatass is a new sculptural shower shaped like the human form created for Bagno Sasso by sculptor and artist Hubert Rieber.



Water is emitted from the shower in a stream from the 'mouth' and/or a 'spray' from the head.




As the sculpture shower appears when not in use (shown in aluminum):


The Aquanatass shower sculpture is available in bronze, aluminium or wood.




The Aquanatass shower sculpture is sold exclusively through Bagno Sasso in Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates. In co-operation with Hubert Rieber further shapes will be realized. All sculptures are hand-made and manufactured in limited edition.

The shower's shape is reminiscent of his contemporary human body sculptures:


The Aquanatass is suitable for private residential bathrooms as well as commercial and retail applications like hotels, yachts and Spas."Aquanatass is an exciting product and the slender and sculptured design completes our collection in an ideal way" says Rolf Senti, CEO of Bagno Sasso.
