Pamper yourself in your inner sanctum with the nature-inspired Antao collection by Villeroy & Boch

In an increasingly harried world, sometimes all it takes to be restored to inner peace is spending time among some greenery. Inspired by the rejuvenating power of the natural environment, German luxury brand Villeroy & Boch has unveiled a new bathroom collection that aims to bring nature’s gentle embrace into the home. Created by acclaimed design duo Kaschkasch, the new Antao range references the perfectly imperfect shape of a dewdrop on a leaf to create a holistic collection that recharges the senses and elevates the bathing experience.

The organic forms are most apparent in the surface-mounted washbasins, which feature a slight touch of asymmetry yet still appear visually harmonious. Designed in three different sizes that range from 40 to 65 cm, the Antao washbasins are made to fit seamlessly into spaces of any size, be it a compact powder room or an indulgent master bathroom.

Just as how no two dewdrops are ever the same, a separate shape has been created for each washbasin size. There are also 11 different tap models in various heights and looks; these include tactile matte finishes as well as brushed nickel, matte black and shiny chrome. The forms of these sleek faucets also reference the dewdrop theme with soft contours, and each presents a unique shape for visual and tactile appeal. Complementing the washbasins is a stunning freestanding bathtub, which beckons users to immerse themselves in rejuvenating bliss. Effortlessly reflecting the natural theme with subtle asymmetrical contours, this designer tub hits the mark in terms of ergonomics as well as functionality.

The Antao bathtub is also made from the finest Quaryl with 60 per cent quartz content to keep water luxuriously hot for a long time while its slender rims and generous 48cm depth provide ample room for an indulgent soak. For an even more pampering home spa experience, upgrade to the SilentFlow system, in which water fills the tub from the bottom up to ensure there is no excessive noise or splashing during your precious me-time. The wall-mounted toilet similarly embodies the nature-influenced design of the Antao collection. The lid is arched gently just like a dewdrop on a leaf, and its flushing system is paired with the innovative TwistFlush technology for the most optimum cleaning performance, while minimising splashing and the need for a toilet brush.

For a cohesive aesthetic, the Antao range comes in a selection of soothing earth tones and neutral colours. Besides classic white in a matte or glossy finish, the ceramic washbasin, toilet and bathtub also come in hues such as matte black, almond and a new shade of morning green to convey an utter sense of bliss and relaxation. For the perfect finishing touch, the organically shaped Antao illuminated mirror comes with touch sensors or an option for a smart Zigbee control for atmospheric background lighting to suit different moods and times of the day. With the Villeroy & Boch Antao collection, it has never been easier to transform daily rituals into moments of indulgence in your personal sanctuary.
