Connect the dots

Whether creating a new bathroom or upgrading an existing one, getting the look right is essential. To ensure your project achieves a modern aesthetic that won't date, it may help to have a noted Dutch product designer at your disposal.

Italian design house Alessi, under European bathroomware giant Laufen, frequently collaborates with respected European designers to create new lines. The company's latest range, Alessi Dot, is the result of a joint effort between Alessi and Dutch design guru Wiel Arets.

Alessi Dot was designed by Arets as a response to the growing global trend towards square design expression but with a difference. The Alessi Dot range has a soft-square aesthetic that gives each piece a peaceful, sculptural quality.

The softened-square profiles and chamfered edges ensure the range's ongoing aesthetic relevance. This means Alessi Dot products look up-to-the-minute now and will retain their fresh look for years to come.

Alessi Dot is offered in a broad range, unusual for a high-end collection. There are several handbasins, bidets, toilets and shower options to choose from, for example. Rounded Alessi Dot tapware, setting off the square-look basins, is available in a variety of finishes.
