Daniel Libeskind’s first bathroom product design for HOESCH was presented at ISH 2009 for the first time. The collabration between New York architect and quite famous bathroom brand is a true bath sculpture that plays with surfaces and geometrical volumes. The optical play of shapes, materials and built-in light creates a fascinating illusion of movement. The bathtub looks like simple bathtub with unusual shape built in other bathtub with wide edges. There isn’t whirlpool system in the tub so besides built-in light it is as simple as possible in order not to spoil its futuristic look. The tub will be available from summer 2009. In architect’s own words: “I wanted to create the idea of movement in an everyday object. I like to think that people settling into this bath tub feel they are entering a different time and space!” [Hoesch]
