BlogTour London and LA sponsor Gessi: The art of high design
By Florence von Pelet
We are delighted to have Gessi USA, makers of what is one of the most design forward collection of bathroom fixtures, sponsor upcoming BlogTours to London and LA and for good reason. Gessi certainly is fearless when it comes to the design of super modern kitchen and bath fixtures as they strive to push the envelope and welcome creativity and versatility with open arms.
Please follow Gessi on Twitter to learn more about this fabulous company.
One of our favorite designs is the Goccia faucet collection. Designer Prospero Rasulo was inspired by the natural curvature and shape of a drop of water in his design. The faucets are entirely adaptable to any kitchen and bath design and can be suspended from the ceiling, mount on to the wall or function as a standalone piece. The faucets are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and finishes and undoubtedly add a striking feature to any bathroom space.
Also part of the Goccia collection are the ceramic washbasins that are made to accompany the uniquely shaped faucets. The vessel sinks are offered in an array of colors and add yet another modern yet organic quality to the collection.
For a more linear and less organic look, Gessi introduced this remarkably sleek line of bathroom and shower furnishings. Rettangolo, designed by Prospero Rasulo. The Rettangolo designs are also offered in a variety of shapes, sizes and color variations. The bath and shower line infuses clean architectural design into the natural flow of water. Gessi prides itself in this minimalist collection as an everyday design that is appealing, calming and well, strikingly beautiful.
Words may not even be necessary for this design. The Tremillimetri (3 Millimeter) shower head presents a distinctive low-key profile and simply mounts on to the wall. The shower heads are available in rectangle and circular profiles in a stainless steel finish. Striking in its simplicity we still marvel at the engineering behind this and all Gessi products.
Finally, Art by Gessi is another fabulous shower collection that dispenses water from an array of mirror polished steel cubes creating a whole new concept for a rain head shower installation. At once sculptural and minimalist, Art is certain to be a focal point of the bathroom.
