Living in style

For centuries, people have appreciated the therapeutic benefits that are associated with bathing, using water for both healing and relaxation.

The Romans, especially, were renowned for creating luxurious public spas. And today, the Italian company Gessi is reinventing the concept of the spa as a private retreat dedicated to wellness within the home.

Larry Allen, Gessi USA CEO and managing director, says that over the past 20 years, Gessi has created many new ways to experience the restorative power of water.

"Gessi accomplishes this in part by reinventing the forms of water for the bathroom, creating products that draw new attention to its beauty.

"A good example is the Tremillimetri shower range. These super-slim showers have a polished stainless steel mirror finish that gives infinite reflections of water. Water appears to form magically on the surface of the showerhead."

Other Gessi collections include Segni showers, which deliver water from elemental primary shapes, such as a square or a circle. And Gessi's Rettangolo Colour faucets appear to change the color of water as the temperature changes. Another new line is the Goccia collection, inspired by the fluid, natural shape of a single droplet of water.
