If you’re seeking to elevate your bathroom to exude a spa-like ambiance, look no further than the latest collections from Villeroy and Boch, the long-time ceramics manufacturer specializing in bathroom products, and Dornbracht, the global developer of designer bathroom fittings and accessories.

Launched during their event titled “Odyssey: The Artistry of a Sensory Bathroom” at the brands’ showroom in Taguig last month, guests were treated to an immersive experience that awakened the five senses.

“Villeroy and Boch has been creating premium bathroom products for 275 years now. We are proud to continue showcasing the brand’s long-time commitment to excellence through our well-crafted products here in the Philippines,” said Hong Li, managing director of Villeroy and Boch APAC.

Drawing inspiration from nature, the Antao collection captures elements like the gentle shape of dewdrops, the fragrance of pine trees, the melodies of chirping birds, and lush green tones, creating a soothing sanctuary perfect for relaxation. The Venticello collection offers clean designs and rimless water closets, exuding sophistication and finesse, catering to those with a taste for luxury.

The Hommage collection channels the opulent lifestyle of the 18th century, blending classic design with modern finishes to cater to both traditional and contemporary bathroom aesthetics, whether one seeks vintage charm or classic elegance with a touch of modernity. Other collections showcased were Subway 3.0 and Collaro.

Indulge in a spa-like retreat with Dornbracht’s rain showers, rain panels, and water modules. Designed with a focus on wellness and comfort, these fittings bring the luxurious experience of a spa day right to your doorstep, offering the perfect opportunity to pamper yourself and rejuvenate your body and mind whenever you desire.
