At this year’s Maison & Objet, to be held in Paris later this month, Ex.t presents its new Nouveau collection – the result of a new collaboration with the Bernhardt-Vella studio in Milan.
Ex.t continues to offer excellence in modularity, versatility and functionality in its bathroom furnishings through its continued collaborations with international designers.
The new Nouveau collection is Bernhardt-Vella studio’s first foray into design for the bathroom space proposing an innovative collection to present to the market that is completely in line with the latest international design trends.
Bernhardt-Vella is comprises a female duo – Paola Vella and Ellen Bernhardt, friends and professionals with a common vision that design should be based on emotion and poetry. With this new collection, the duo has challenged themselves to design a washbasin for the bathroom environment using the creative approach they apply to the home design world.
The result is that the bathroom becomes a dynamic living space, able to transform and renew itself continuously, following the rhythms of contemporary living. Nouveau is a modular system that is adaptable to different living environments, different space needs and individual functionalities.
The collection of washbasins, cabinets and mirrors featuring geometric and sinuous lines, born from a balance of basic and classic shapes such as circles, semi-circles and parallelepipeds, creating a game of volumes in a succession of full and empty spaces.
Freely inspired by early twentieth century Art Deco, the collection takes refined suggestions from that era and reworks them with the taste and sensitivity of a contemporary perspective.
The Nouveau washbasin is characterised by asymmetrical shapes with bold edges that serve as practical support surfaces. It can be wall mounted or installed as a countertop – supported by a metal structure that elegantly defines its shape. The structure is available in brushed bronze, satin-finish brass or matte black finishes and can be combined with various accessories such as towel rails, wooden drawers, marble or stone storage tops to offer a functional and complete product.
