BATHROOM / FORMATION 02 SMART TOILET BY SAMUEL ROSS FOR KOHLER
A project all about contrasts, from innovation to tradition, future to prehistory, Formation 02 represents a new milestone in the world of intelligent, smart and multifunctional toilets. Designed by British creative talent Samuel Ross and produced for the US brand Kohler, it combines a seemingly rudimentary design with sophisticated technology and vibrant colour. “Our aim was to completely rethink the toilet and create a sculptural piece that would really stand out in the bathroom environment”. Inspired by the speed and power of water and using ultra-modern moulding techniques, the ceramic and composite resin piece is characterised by its unprecedented brutalist aesthetic, its hi-tech functionality and its unusual Haptic Orange colour—a hallmark of the British designer’s work.
