The story of Villeroy & Boch, which this year celebrates its 275th anniversary, is indelibly linked to the history of the bathroom itself, with the iconic German brand playing an ongoing role over the years in shaping the bathroom as we know it. As well as being a household name in the bathroom and wellness space, the company is also active in the area of dining and lifestyle, developing into a major global player from its humble beginnings in 1748.
For one of its newest collections, Villeroy & Boch collaborated with Cologne-based design duo kaschkasch. The result is the organic Antao programme of pieces, which was inspired by the shape of dewdrops and brings a sense of gentle harmony to bathroom spaces.
