- Design Challenge

To protect the natural wood veneers against moisture, special treatments were applied to enhance durability. All these challenges were overcome through high-quality manufacturing technologies and the use of sustainable materials.

Its flexible structure adapts to various bathroom sizes, offering ease of use and a balance of aesthetics. With high quality standards and the use of sustainable materials, the production system is environmentally conscious.
- Inspiration
- Dodici means "twelve" in Italian, and this name reflects the modular nature of the design. In this collection, which unites natural materials with modern architecture, elegance and durability are perfectly balanced. It draws inspiration from nature, its pure beauty, and Italian design. The rhythmic arrangement of the modules adapts to the space, transforming each bathroom into a work of art. Dodici represents an elegant, harmonious, and unique lifestyle in bathroom design.

It was exhibited at Unicera in November 2024. - Operation Flow
