With elegant modular solutions, Duravit brings thoughtful design to the heart of the modern bathroom, no matter the size of the space
Our bathrooms are our personal sanctuaries. Once a purely utilitarian space, it has evolved today as part ritual, part retreat—a room to be shared. From morning and evening routines, to moments of pause in between and those occasional ones where our lives briefly intersect, the daily rhythms that take place here underline why the bathroom’s design shouldn’t be an afterthought.

This is deeply understood by Kuysen and Duravit: two names uttered with approval among architects, interior designers and key developers. Kuysen is a homegrown leader in premium furnishings with just over 35 years in the business, and Germany-based Duravit has considered it a reliable partner for more than 25 years.
Duravit’s refined silhouettes and quietly clever solutions have made it a go-to for those who believe that luxury lies in the thoughtful, the tactile and the timeless. Extensively proficient in handling the technical aspects of the high-end brand, Kuysen consequently matches this commitment to excellence, offering clients seamless support and after-sales service.
When it comes to creating an exquisitely composed bathroom for two, Duravit’s modular double washbasins offer a masterclass on how to do more with less. Available in a wide range of styles and dimensions, designs are streamlined and sculptural, balancing purity and presence to make even the busiest mornings feel beautifully choreographed. Underscoring the luxury of convenience, Duravit proves that a double sink does not need to be twice the size—just well-thought-out.

The German manufacturer recognises that even when space is limited, ambition need not be. It has basins and furniture with reduced depth specifically for smaller bathrooms, offering generous functionality without overwhelming the room.
Every element is meticulously considered: mirrored cabinets with integrated lighting enhance the atmosphere while providing discreet storage, and thoughtful layouts make certain that not a centimetre is wasted. The result is a space that feels calm, light and attuned to everyday life.

This sense of individuality is further echoed by Duravit’s collaborations with internationally acclaimed designers, which include Philippe Starck’s sculptural White Tulip, Patricia Urquiola’s serene Balcoon and Christian Werner’s minimalist L-Cube among the lot. Each collection interprets how a bathroom for two could look and feel like, even in the most compact formats.
