SLED BATHTUB
SLED BATHTUB
Designed by Carlo Colombo
A strong sign that engraves a soft shape, a volume carved out from several parts, an elegant and contemporary image, suspended, enriched by functional details that become distinctive aesthetic characteristics. The result is a sculptural dimension, imposing but light, organic like a natural element shaped by the skillful hand of man.
Sled is the freestanding bathtub that arises from the transformation of a perfect geometry, through two diagonal cuts that dissect the depth of the basin and an incision that follows the perimeter in width, as if to measure the longitudinal development of the edge.
Precisely this low edge supports the large volume to become a practical support surface on which to store the objects necessary for body care. A functional detail that ends up defining the overall image of the tub, giving movement and vitality to the shape.
A light feeling, a surface that seems to have been generated by water that with a steady, but constant action "erodes" the material, shaping it. The volume is large and welcoming and the thin edge that develops on all the other sides allows for a greater capacity of the tub.
