A washroom that assumes a spa-like environment is appealing to many, incorporating natural elements for an aesthetic serenity which creates a small escape from the stress of everyday life. The Islet Bathroom by ENKO-creatio strives quite literally to offer its user a virtual island, isolated from the activity of the rest of the house.
The organic restroom set can itself operate as a sort of island, simply requiring access to plumbing from somewhere beneath the floor. No part of the Islet Bathroom is reliant on the support of walls, as the elegant cluster can stand independently in the center of the washroom. A gorgeous raw wooden trunk supplies water from its branching faucets to a bathtub and sink basin, dressed in gorgeous granite cladding.
