A new unique flagship cultural space for this leading global bathroom brand is inspired by the movement of water. The seamless dynamic space contains semi-open zones for product displays and meeting rooms with interactive technologies.
The interior of natural forms was created with internal and external concrete cladding panels and pods weighing up to one tonne each.
Curved glass walls form the meeting areas with the geometry of glass providing sufficient strength to support the steel beam above.
