Cornered Circular Soakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Suri 140 Bathtub Enables a Space-Saving 360-Degree Dip

— October 14, 2011 — Art & Design
A round jacuzzi is not necessarily reserved for 300-square-foot luxury washrooms, as the Suri 140 Bathtub demonstrates. The user can get the freedom of a 360-degree arrangement with the majority of it still providing an open view away from the walls.

Massimo Farinatti's solution to this was to design a soaker specially configured for installation in the corner of the bathroom, tucking it away while avoiding the awkwardness of creating hard-to-reach crannies around the backside of the bath. By working with the unusual shape produced between the marriage of a circle and a square, the basin came to include broad 9 centimeter edges for the placement of shampoo and soap products. The Albatros Suri 140 Bathtub affords a taste of opulence for more conservative restroom spaces.
Trend Themes
1. Space-saving Bathtubs - Designing bathtubs to fit in corners or other compact spaces offers a disruptive innovation opportunity for bathroom fixtures manufacturers.
2. 360-degree Accessibility - Providing users with the freedom of a 360-degree arrangement in bathtubs opens up possibilities for innovative bathing experiences and convenience.
3. Luxury in Small Spaces - Creating luxurious and opulent experiences in more conservative restroom spaces can be a disruptive innovation opportunity for luxury bathroom product makers.
Industry Implications
1. Bathroom Fixtures Manufacturing - The trend of designing space-saving bathtubs creates opportunities for bathroom fixtures manufacturers to develop innovative products suitable for compact spaces.
2. Interior Design - The trend of 360-degree accessibility in bathtubs offers opportunities for interior designers to create unique and functional bathroom layouts.
3. Luxury Home Décor - The trend of bringing luxury to small spaces presents opportunities for luxury home décor companies to offer high-end products for compact bathrooms.
