Ex.t chooses again Maison&Objet to unveil its new products. Successfully launched last year in Paris, #nouveau collection is enriched with a bathtub and a shower system, confirming the synergy of the Florentine brand with designers duo Paola Vella and Ellen Bernhardt. 2020 is a year of ex- perimentation and exploration of new languages for #ext, which introduces a new excellent collabo- ration with Marcante-Testa study, resulting in a new collection: #frieze.
Aesthetically exuberant, full of color, and with a strong architectural imprint, #frieze aims to expand further the offer of #ext catalogue, that last year had already distinguished itself with a touch of po- etry and emotion thanks to #nouveau collection. Both #nouveau and #frieze, albeit with different aes- thetic languages, reflect the core idea of #ext bathroom: a modular, versatile and functional envi- ronment able to transform and renew itself continuously following the trends of contemporary living.
Frieze
Frieze the new collection of washbasins and bathroom accessories designed by Marcante-Testa for #ext. Inspired by "entablatures" series by Roy Lichtenstein, the project is articulated through different levels of signs, materials and colours where the washbasin stars as central element of the bath-room to organize the accessory elements. The architectural approach of the designers in- volves the entire spatial dimension of the bathroom: the position of the sink is defined from a cen- tral wall strip, the upper and a lower part of the wall can be covered in different materials, creating space to install the mirror, shelves, furniture and towel hooks. Featuring three washbasins #frieze One High, #frieze One Low and #frieze Two Lined, along with various accessories, it offers a very versatile system both spatially and stylistically. The combination of different shapes, colours, finish- es and materials allows a lot of unique and original combinations.
Nouveau
Freely inspired by the Art Déco of early 20th century #nouveau collection - featuring washbasins, containers mirrors and accessories - gets richer in 2020 with new elements: a bathtub and a show- er system. The bathtub shows the same sinuous and geometric lines of the entire collection. Its small size and circular shape includes a detail that, just like in the washbasins, is both decorative and func- tional.
Thanks to this element it is possible to place objects or install the taps, allowing the bath to be set on the wall as well as a centerpiece of the room. Along with the basins, the bathtub is made in LivingTecR, a solid surface featuring high technical performances and pleasant to the touch, available in matt white or blush pink; a delicate and re-fined shade still inspired by the beginning of the last century. The #nouveau shower system has a strong personality. Like the other elements of the collection, it is a contemporary and essential in- terpretation of the Art Dèco, featuring clear and asymmetrical geometries as main details. Trans- forming contrasts into harmony, the system combines the visual lightness of glass and refined col- ours with the sharp lines of the frame.
