“The bathroom has become a kind of living room, a place where we can relax and tend to our well-being,” discussed Italian architect Antonio Citterio, collection designer. “At the same time, especially in the city, even luxurious bathrooms are becoming smaller. And so I perceived the need for a new design language at the washbasin. The collection had to be slender and compact, with a softness that spoke to our desire for a comfort and a reduced materiality that reflected the contemporary imperative to create more out of less. It had to adapt to every lifestyle, particularly with regards to surface colours. Above all, the design of each piece had to last, engaging and attracting the user not just at first glance but for the entire life of the product”.

The range is distinguished by its slender verticality, its soft and sensuous form, its flat surfaces and its signature detail, a subtle chamfer that encircles every piece in the collection. The conical body, which flairs gently outward from the base, inverts the typical shape of a tap while an ergonomic lever handle offers exceptional ease of use.
The optional cubic cut pattern for the handle provides depth to the surface and a decorative touch, whilst also communicating the direction of its operation. A partially-textured surface is used for one-handle arrangements, with a fully-textured surface for two-handle* arrangements. The sleek form of the minimalistic design is complemented by its resource-conserving CoolStart function and a flow rate of just five litres/min.
At the bathtub, the taps come in a variety of silhouettes and sizes. The collection also includes fixtures for the shower, ensuring a coherent design language across the bathroom. Adaptable to any ambience, the collection is available in a plain version, the cubic cut pattern, and other pre- defined textural patterns via AXOR Signature and the exclusive AXOR FinishPlus surfaces.
A wide range of products brings the subtle yet distinctive design language of AXOR Citterio C to every area of the bathroom. At the washbasin, mixer taps come in three different heights, with wall-mounted, two-hole and three-hole versions available.
At the bathtub, options include a floor–standing bath mixer, a 3-hole rim mounted bath mixer including the sBox and a three-hole wall-mounted bath mixer with shower holder. In the shower, an overhead 270 1-jet is available in three installation types: ceiling-integrated, with a ceiling connector or with a shower arm. The ceiling-integrated shower is available with Rain technology and the latter two types both feature PowderRain technology. Customers can choose between a standard flow-rate of 12 litre/min or the water-saving EcoSmart option with just eight litre/min for all overhead showers.
