New age tapware changing contemporary bathroom design

Creating a contemporary bathroom is tricky business. When it comes to your bathroom design, a long-enduring project once completed, you don’t want to be trapped by opting for a passing trend that leaves your bathroom dated in a matter of years… Tapware is probably the most defining feature in establishing a design story for your bathroom. We explore exciting new age tapware that will stand the test of time.

WHY CONTEMPORARY TAPWARE CAN BECOME DATED IN A SHORT TIME

Trends in bathroom tapware have often emerged from brands exploring slight variations on existing design such as colours and shape and releasing products to that effect. Such products are promoted and received by consumers for a time but can become yesterday’s news quickly. By not really changing a design style too much and modelling a product on an existing design style, it easy to see why these trends come and go as it is a simple transition to revert back to an original style once interest dwindles.

SO HOW DO I FIND CONTEMPORARY TAPWARE THAT WILL BECOME TIMELESS?

Look for tapware design that is completely innovative, has won design awards, high quality and fundamentally different. A great example of this is the Axia collection by Phoenix Tapware. Phoenix Tapware’s finest Australian designers have spent years on reimagining tapware to create a product that follows no trends but rather provokes a feeling of a maverick endeavour to create new age contemporary tapware. Axia is a modern twist on tradition. Each design has been meticulously crafted with crisp detailing and a strong presence. Unique design details include the ultra-thin outlet and lever-less handle design. Axia’s innovation and cutting-edge design has been recognised internationally with winning multiple design awards.
