Transform your space with AXOR’s Waterway
When you step into AXOR’s Waterway, you enter a visionary architectural sequence crafted in collaboration with designer Haihua Zhang. This immersive space marks the debut of AXOR’s AXOR Archivio collection. By employing Koshi wood, microcement, and thoughtfully flowing water, the project redefines what a bathroom can be. Here, historical designs meet contemporary materials, seamlessly integrating into the bathroom series imagined by Barber Osgerby.

Reviving archival forms with AXOR
The AXOR Archivio collection distills decades of design influences into elements that are both contemporary and enduring. Utilizing brushed brass fixtures, the collection translates soft, flowing contours and historical silhouettes into modern spaces. This balanced approach evokes cultural and architectural sensitivity, providing a bridge between past and present.
The harmonious atmosphere of Waterway
Inspired by the serene landscapes of Suzhou, China, the Waterway project incorporates the essence of nature into each bathroom zone. The bath, shower, and basin all span the full width of the plan, mirroring Suzhou’s narrow river pathways. A sunken, square bath and balanced use of light, shadow, material, and atmosphere craft an environment that soothes and calms.
The @axordesign features such as a shower with a handle thermostat for dual functions and a 240 1 jet overhead provide both functionality and aesthetic appeal. A floating custom washbasin set against a bamboo grove further complements the tranquil space, showcasing how AXOR’s tailored designs connect deeply to craftsmanship and historical roots.
