AGAPE at the Milano Design Week 2015

The range of Agape products is a great project that changes, constantly refreshes and enriches itself with new proposals.
Flexibility, customization, and timeless design characterize the experiments and numerous novelties presented at Salone del Mobile 2015, which explores some new directions that will guide our catalog in the nearest future.

Two new products (Lariana, Cuna), result of long-term collaboration with Patricia Urquiola, feature skillful use of materials and production processes, while extending the already important range of bathtubs with dimensions of high flexibility. The range is enriched with a new tub Cristalplant® (Canal Grande - design P. Lucidi, L. Pevere), which thoroughly investigates the potential of this material revising some signs of the past.

A new programme of cabinets (Lato - design Benedini Associati) is added to the two existing systems Flat XL and Evoluzione by extending the maximum size of a single drawer up to two metres 
with new and exclusive finishes dedicated to enhanced customisation and clean aesthetics. Personalisation and “made to measure” concept are also the basis of the new washbasin-countertop programme 
(Ell - design Benedini Associati con A. Jost e D. Cisi). Its clean profile of just 4 cm at the thickest point combines easy and extended configurability with the ability to use a wide range of materials.

New versions, new solutions and new finishes also extend other product families (In-Out, Monolith, DR), making them even more effective and responsive to the most diverse and contemporary architectural design requirements.

The following pages offer a detailed overview of the most important new products, not yet included or highlighted in the Tools catalogue.

PRODUCTS 

Ell

design Benedini Associati con Andres Jost e Diego Cisi

Ell is a new washsbasin - countertop featured by lightness and high configurability, made with marble or stone Solid Surface in various colors and types. Only 4 cm thick, tapering up to 1 cm on the edges, it is 50 cm high, available in custom length between 120 and 300 cm and can be lit on the edges toward the wall.

The reservoirs, 60 cm wide, are featured by a grid panel made of the same material of the countertop. They can also be positioned adjacent to each other and their number and position is limited only by the length of the top.

The top is supported by brackets and supports structures and cabinets of various types; it is compatible with all Flat XL and Lato systems.

Monolith

Agape Geberit

The Monolith Agape washbasin module adds to the range of products designed to complete the bidet and toilet facilities of Geberit. 

Dimensional characteristics, materials and design are consistent with the other components of the line which allows you to eliminate or reduce the in-wall facilities with significant savings of time and cost. 

In addition to the purely technical side, the washbasin module is equipped with a shelf in the niche and a cabinet with a right or left side mirror door.

Canal Grande

design Paolo Lucidi, Luca Pevere 

Canal Grande is a bathtub of limited length which was born from the encounter of a contemporary material - the Cristalplant® biobased - and an object of the past, the memory of fragrances and shapes: a washhouse. It was a place where women once gathered to wash clothes in the vicinity of a waterway, normally made in stone or concrete, and a washtub was often used together with a wooden board. 

Canal Grande is particularly suitable for environments with reduced dimensions thanks to its regular shape and reduced length. 
The bathtub reinterprets some signs of memory: its broad surface that develops on the long side, is the major distinctive element. 
A slight slope in the surface allows water drain, and its profoundness and convenience allows adding even more objects and accessories in the bathroom.

Cuna

design Patricia Urquiola

The project is the result of a thorough knowledge of materials and production processes. Cuna features thermoformed Solid Surface and tubular steel structure. 

This small and compact bathtub proudly displays its structure emphasizing its delicately rounded shapes. 

Cuna is available in different combinations of external surfaces and structure finishings. 

Lariana

design Patricia Urquiola

Lariana is a compact bathtub of reduced dimensions. This feature, combined with double wrapping, gives lightness to the solid structure and accentuates the linear form of this modern product.

The bathtub is made of white Cristalplant®

In-out

design Benedini Associati

In-Out, a new solution made of marble, fits in the range of bathtubs. The bathtub’s shape and dimensions suppose upright posture. Here an exclusive version in Nero Marquina, also available in other marbles and stones upon request.

DR

design Studio MK27, Marcio Kogan, Mariana Ruzante

DR bathtub, the result of collaboration with Brazilian designer Marcio Kogan and Studio MK27, is now available with new clay finishes by Matteo Brioni. 

The thin clay fining, applied by hand and of just a few millimeters, is characterized by high mechanical, abrasion and water resistance. 

The bathtub is also available in raw version, in multilayer of okumé, to allow the most different finishes chosen by designer and customer.

Plan-a

design Mario Tessarollo e Giulio Gianturco

This project arises from construction experience, where the shower environment is often beautifully handcrafted, from time to time integrated as much as possible into architecture. 

The apparent simplicity is the strength of the project, a bar connects the crystals and sustains the rotating pins of the door. 

In this solution you don’t need strong marks, this essential and precise line is embellished with small details in stainless steel, designed to give a plain image, not a showed-off.

Lato

design Benedini Associati

This line of storage units is characterized by large dimensions and various finishings of the doors made of different kinds of wood. Cabinets can be combined with all other lines including the new Ell washbasin - countertop. 

Agape enriches with unexpected alternatives the tools for meeting the needs and, despite the consistency and aesthetic continuity, the new fields and trends of styles. 

Wood, marble, leather and glass are used in this sense for the doors of the containers.
