Overflowing With Luxurious Modern Design: KÄSCH Tubs & Whirlpools

above: Oriental Overflow whirlpool tub by Kasch

KÄSCH (or Kaesch as it's called in the US) is an internationally renowned manufacturer of exclusive acrylic bathtubs and whirlpools, largely for upscale hotels. Their products feature timeless, elegant design combined with uncompromising quality in materials and workmanship. They carry three lines of tubs; Freestanding, Overflow and Takiyu.

Their Overflow and Takiyua whirlpool tubs in particular are truly lust-worthy. And those are the ones I've chosen to share with you today.

The Overflow collection's name describes the product feature that makes it so desirable - the water flows back into the basin in a seemingly endless cycle as it spills over the edge that is so neatly flush with the floor. The whirlpool tubs can can be outfitted with color changing lights and music making it a complete soothing sensory experience. The Overflow line comes in six styles:

ORIENTAL:

POND:


WISH:



CHI:


FLOAT:



LAKE:






Along with bathing in mineral springs, bathing in the pool of a waterfall - TAKIYU - has a long tradition in Japan. Even in earliest times in Asia, waterfalls in hidden mountain areas were pilgrimage places for individual bathing rituals. The TAKIYU concept is based on the combination of a waterfall with the massaging effects of air-water jets, enhanced by colored lighting. This model supports physical and psychological regeneration. Water continually flows in a closed cycle from beneath a decorative covering, falling gently into the tub.

There are ten models in the Takiyu line:

RT912/RT915:

The Tub-E And Tub-T From Wild Terrain Designs.

Australian company Wild Terrain Designs began in 2005 by creating vandal-resistant public bathrooms. In 2008, they branched out into property development creating designs for personal homes along South Australia's coastline and the foothills of Victoria.

Then, in 2009, they launched a line of unusual, whimsical and luxurious bathtubs and showers using unique combinations of metals, marble and glass called Exclusively Yours. The Tub-E and the Tub-T are two unique bathtubs from that luxury line of products.

The Tub-E:


The Electronic Tub-E is a luxury bath tub available in stainless steel or copper, cradled by a swirled staircase in perforated stainless steel. The tub has pinhole LED lights embedded into the perimeter, and a heater built in under the seat.



With one touch programming, it's not only auto fill, auto empty and auto clean, but can also be programmed to add any essential oils during the filling of the tub.


The Tub-T:


The Tub-T is fabricated from highly polished stainless steel with sandblasted glass steps, 16mm thick. Each glass step is lit by a soft glow LED light, and the hand rail is not just functional, but is sculptural as it graces the wall behind the tub. Inside the tub is a bench seat and the water is kept warm by an under bench heater in the cavity of the tub.

Carlo Colombo's Cuna Bathtub For Antonio Lupi

Recently introduced at this years Maison et Object show was the Cuna bathtub designed by Italian architect and designer Carlo Colombo (who also designed the Vascabarca-Barcavasca boat shaped bathtub) for Antonio Lupi.

The modern bathtub has a built in backrest and comes in two color variations; white on white and olive green exterior with white interior.

The one thing I have to say, being relatively short in stature, is that, although I haven't sat in this tub personally, I fear that if you weren't tall, and couldn't anchor your feet at the end of the tub, you might continually slip into the water . But that's just speculation on my part.

What do you think?
