The Live Bath-Anemone design offers a unique way to shower and bathe. Specifically inspired by the sea anemone, it takes on the form and texture of this life form in every regard. It seems completely natural to me, when I think about it, that our bathing system should be inspired by ocean life and sea creatures. I mean, both involve water, right?
Designed by Irina Samoylova for bathroom brand Roca, the Live Bath-Anemone feature a slew of little 'fingers' that boast a ton of elasticity and plasticity. They move up and down, fluctuating with the flow and ebb of the water just like real anemones do. Basically, this allows the bathtub to massage the body in a unique and soothing manner.
