VITRA HONOURED WITH THIRD CONSECUTIVE DESIGNER KITCHEN AND BATHROOM AWARD VitrA Bathrooms has secured another prestigious industry award, this time for Equal, developed in collaboration with Claudio Bellini. The Designer Kitchen and Bathroom Award for Innovation in Bathroom Product Design is the fifth award for VitrA from Designer Kitchen and Bathroom Magazine. Previous awards have been received for ranges created with both Sebastian Conran (Eternity Accessories) and Terri Pecora (Plural). Also, at the event internationally respected designer Arik Levy, was awarded a lifetime achievement award. Arik Levy is currently working on a new range with

VitrA called Voyage, which will be launched early next year. Margaret Talbot, Marketing Manager for VitrA said “We are delighted to receive this award for Equal. The range has been well received by both retailers and designers of commercial spaces.” Margaret added “It’s also fantastically serendipitous that Arik Levy has been honoured at the same awards.” The new Equal collection by Claudio Bellini uses geometric shapes and monochrome tones. Using clean, minimal borders and industrial, metallic accents, Bellini’s designs emulate the structures found in modernist
architecture. Framing many pieces in the range, the sleek metal rails bring an elegant quality and create connections between the furniture using linear shapes. The collection features a mirror with integrated LED lighting, a selection of storage and washbasin units, and a wallhung WC. The contemporary nature of the delicate, angular design makes it ideal for both commercial and residential spaces.
