Artweger Price/ Performance Champion 2024
Artweger PRESTIGE, the innovative rotating tube shower cubicle
An unmistakable design language that evokes emotions and tugs at the heartstrings. Artweger, the specialist and pioneer in showers and baths, has teamed up with Studio F. A. Porsche to bring you a legendary design for the bathroom.
Artweger PRESTIGE is a unique design object that plays a pioneering role in terms of technology but is still affordable. The radically minimalist design, in which the hinge and profile merge into a slim, efficient unit, clearly bears the signature of the renowned design studio Studio F. A. Porsche. It combines a straightforward, simple look with the unique functionality of the patented 360° hinge.
The best proof: A prestigious object is also available in premium quality at an affordable price Under reasonable conditions: Despite its striking design concept and superior functionality, the PRESTIGE is in the midprice category, making it a real price-performance champion.
The unique look does not require any disruptive plastic parts for hinges and profiles. This seemingly small step has a big advantage: We guarantee consistent colours from a single cast.
A Sight that Moves You
Together with Studio F. A. Porsche, we have developed PRESTIGE, a unique rotating tube shower cubicle that opens 180° inwards and 180° outwards. The entire profile with the rotating tube hinge is surprisingly only 38 millimetres wide - making it one of the narrowest on the market.
With a width of just 38 millimetres, the hinge is one of the narrowest on the market.
Reduced to the Essentials
Round and angular: Precisely because the design language has been consistently reduced to these two basic geometric shapes, this shower cubicle stands out. The design is unobtrusive, discreet and light, without appearing fragile.
The stabilisers harmonise perfectly with the hinges.
The two designer handles with rubberised grip section or knurled metal surface are easy to hold, even with wet hands, and the rubberised front surface provides a gentle stop when opening the doors.
In close collaboration with the legendary Studio F. A. Porsche, Artweger has designed a unique shower cubicle. The design of Studio F. A. Porsche is consistently characterised by its clear designlanguage. The Artweger PRESTIGE also impresses with its strong focus on round and angular shapes which gives it a striking appearance. Its design is restrained, unobtrusive and yet robust without giving the impression of fragility. This targeted restriction to elementary geometric shapes gives the shower cubicle a unique aesthetic that is both modern and timeless. This and the sturdy construction emphasise the high standards of sustainability.
Studio F. A. Porsche –Design for Eternity
Studio F. A. Porsche is a premium design agency that designs products for clients worldwide, turns brands into an experience and brings the highest standards into perfect form. In 1963, Ferdinand Alexander Porsche designed the Porsche 911, a sports car that remains iconic to this day and which illustrates his design maxims. Optimising the function, reducing the form to its essentials and overcoming the familiar in order to keep discovering new, better solutions.
“The PRESTIGE is an evolutionary further development of the modern shower cubicle through consistent reduction to essential elements“
Henning Rieseler, Design Director Studio F. A. Porsche
At the centre of the Artweger PRESTIGE is the completely new, discreet continuous 360° rotating tube. The hinge function has been fully integrated into the bar profile. The hinge is therefore no longer directly visible and is perceived at first glance as a narrow, continuous profile - both elements thus form a structural unit.
The 360° hinge creates WALK IN solutions where open showers would otherwise be impossible. With the WALK IN VARIO, a fixed glass panel is attached to a glass section that can be moved through 360°, thus enabling access to the shower area even in narrow niches.
The innovative 360° rotating tube impresses all round. This is because it enables unique design solutions even in small bathromms that cannot be realised with a conventional pivot hinge.
The swing door on the fixed section can easily be opened 180° inwards and 180° outwards, offering unimagined possibilities, especially in small bathrooms - and where there is little space to open the door.

The movable glass section can be folded away completely inwards or outwards or used at a 90° angle inwards as an additional splash guard.
On opening, the raise and lower mechanism gently lifts the door section so that the seal does not drag across the floor. For maximum sealing, it is lowered on closing.
Models with fixed parts (pictured above) allow a movement of up to 360°. Models with a rotating tube on the wall (pictured right) allow the door to move 180°.
To ensure that the elegant beauty lasts a particularly long time: The internal trimming of the fixed wall profile skilfully conceals the silicone joints.
Completely watertight thanks to the optional surge bar (12 mm) in the door area or completely barrier-free? With the VARIO sealing system, you can choose freely between these two variants.
Regardless of whether the door opens inwards or outwards, thanks to two concealed vertical seals, the connection between the door and the fixed part is tight in any door position.
Stable, elegant and slim: The stabilisers mirror the curves of the rotating tube and guarantee that the shower cubicle stands securely.
