Together with the design duo at KASCHKASCH, Villeroy & Boch have encapsulated the natural world in its new Antao bathroom collection. With shapes and colours inspired by nature, the collection is defined by its gentle, asymmetrical curves…
The Antao furniture collection from Villeroy & Boch offers a stylish material mix of high-quality natural materials, textured fronts and a harmonious selection of colours. As well as high-quality painted surfaces in mellow, natural trend colours, the collection also includes real wood furniture in a variety of tones including Honey Oak and Warm Walnut as well as an elegant natural stone panel in real Botticino marble.

Designers Florian Kallus and Sebastian Schneider of Design Studio KASCHKASCH, found the theme for a natural design early one morning in a forest. The air was fresh, the light was soft and everything glistened in dewdrops. “We were fascinated by the dewdrops on the ferns and moss,” recalls Kallus, “organic, yet organised; asymmetric but balanced.”
The result of this inspiration is a deliberately muted collection with earthy colours, natural materials such as real wood and natural stone and velvety matt surfaces. The eye-catching, design-led Antao furniture coordinates perfectly with the ceramic elements in the collection, including beautiful dewdrop washbasins and free-standing baths, all keeping in touch with nature.

The harmonious design of the furniture offering includes rounded corners and edges and are available in various drawer configurations and surface-variants to suit every need. Long gone are bulky bathroom furniture which invite clutter – the push-to-open mechanism included in the Antao collection avoids the need for handles and the optional LED drawer lighting provides a clear view of the storage, even at night.
The extensive furniture range consists of different sizes of vanity units and consoles as well as a selection of complementary furniture such as a sideboard, tall cabinet and medium cabinet. All offer a great storage solution for any bathroom.

To complement the vanity units, Villeroy & Boch also offer mirrors within the Antao range. With all the radiance of a real dewdrop, the mirrors round off the collection to perfection. From warm white to cold white, the Antao mirrors offer adjustable and dimmable light to help set the mood.
The new Antao collection also includes washbasins, baths and taps, which are all inspired by nature.
