Kohler Numi, The High-Tech Luxury Toilet That Does Everything But Take The Crap For You.

Kohler introduces Numi, Kohler’s most advanced toilet. The Numi toilet is a state of the art, modern, automatic and motion-sensor, self-cleaning toilet combination bidet that also warms your feet, your tush, can play music with its built-in speakers, audio input jack and docking station and keeps itself odor-free.

That's not all, it has ambient lighting that gives it an inviting glow in the dark, the lid is hands-free and motion activated, the seat has adjustable heating options and it has a built in automatic charcoal filter deodorizer. It even cleans itself with your choice from three patterned water sprays. And everything can be controlled by a modern looking remote.




By the looks of the promotional lifestyle product shots, Kohler is marketing the Numi like a piece of modern luxury furniture. The stylized, and come on, let's face it.. over the top, images were shot in the famous Pierre Koenig Stahl House (also known as the Case Study House #22) in Los Angeles.



The Numi combines modern design, technology and engineering to bring you the finest in personal comfort and cleansing. From its striking form and features to its unrivaled water efficiency, the Numi toilet marks a new standard of excellence in the bathroom.



Features:

• Motion activated lid and seat:

Cogliati Cogliati Bath Has A Clear Design Distinction, Literally.

Italian bathroom design company Cogliati...Cogliati had a clearly different point of view on sink and vanity design. And I mean that literally. Their bathroom sinks, basins, vanities and cabinets incorporate modern transparent glass, materials and design.

Cogliati is a trademark of VETRARIA WE WOULD Ltd., a company that has forty years of experience in working with glass in the furniture industry and construction. Cogliati was specifically started in 2005, with designer Giuseppe Viganò at the helm, as a faction of the company to highlight the use of glass materials a new area of business. Original sinks, cabinets, mirrors, faucets and accessories made with their water cutting glass technology and computer design are the result.

Encased in tempered glass, the sinks use materials like stone, concrete, and enamel and are also available with screen-printed glass. Here's a look at much of the collection.
