In its anniversary year of 2023, Villeroy & Boch is rounding off its holistic range of bathroom products with a new product segment…

×Behind Villeroy & Boch lies 275 years of company history, with a multitude of material, manufacturing and product innovation along the way. And now something else is being added to the iconic German brand's portfolio. We are, of course, in the bathroom – a room whose modern form Villeroy & Boch has helped to decisively shape – to ask the question: With such an enormous range of products available on today's market, how can all of a bathroom's components be harmoniously coordinated?
The washbasin and fittings become one single unit when the radii and contours of both elements form a shared continuum – as shown here in the combination of the Subway 3.0 basin with the new fitting of the same name

×From a single source
One smart answer is purchasing them all from a single source: Bath, washbasin and WC for sure, and why not furniture and shower tray, too? And Villeroy & Boch has also recently started to offer fittings specially matched to the company's existing, as well as new, bathroom collections. The price range of the eleven available series extends from entry-level to premium. With them, every individual washbasin, bathtub and shower configuration can be harmoniously completed. Villeroy & Boch ensures design compatibility with the respective products by, for example, translating the concise angles, radii and curves of its washbasins and baths to the shape of the corresponding mixer series.

×Under the slogan ‘Top Together’, the manufacturer is able to recommend the optimal combinations for different configurations, but can also suggest other compatible mixer ranges for each bathroom collection – meaning something for every taste. A prime example of things perfectly matching is the kaschkasch-designed Antao bathroom collection, which was holistically conceived from the outset. It includes washbasins and basins with matching vanity units and storage furniture as well as wall mirrors, a bathtub, a WC and wonderfully hand-pleasing fittings – a dream for purists with quality standards and a taste for subtle detailing.
