Bathroom for the future

  • Lisa Breschi
How will an ordinary apartment bathroombe in 20 years? What will it look and featuresor our sensations inside that room be?
It is not easy to understanding changes and anticipating trends is not easy, especially when it comes to such a space as the bathroom, whose configuration has remained nearly unvaried for decades.   
Nowadays people travel more and stop less, meet different cultures and ways of living, embrace new sharing economy models also in the hospitality sector, and the boundary between house and hotel becomes more and more blurred.  
Future trends in the sphere of interior spaces seem to concern the research of quality,sustainability, wellness, privacy and "mooding", namely the combination of harmony and sensory seduction.
The project bathroom for the future was born to try offering a futurist solution to the demands that our rushing society is developing, this by creating an environment that could be both on and offline when needed.
The concept is based on the idea of a sensitive vortex: to envelop the user with natural materials, sounds and aromas, potentially combined with technology comforts, so to guarantee the maximum relax and well-being directly from home. The smooth surface of thepolished stone, the softness of the sandplunging under the feet, the scent of mint and wet wood and the sound of water flowing and breaking on small rocks combine with water and energy saving systems, self-cleaning and/or heated surfaces, vapour nozzles and an interactive mirror, this last maybe connected to the entire home automation system so that you can control your coffee temperature while having your morning shower.
