After the big spring design shows and festivals, there is a lot of new products hitting the market. Just in time for the spring renovation season, the products here bring the style and the panache.
The list includes colorful tubs, new glass tiles and more.
The brand believes designers are trading pale minimalism for saturated greens, deep garnets and golden ochres that instantly warm up kitchens and baths. That’s why the company has launched the new architectural glass tile collection, which leans all the way in with 18 richly pigmented hues designed to catch and refract natural light. “Handmade-feeling glazes with movement and complexity are surging as design leans more personal and collected,” says Jamie Chappell, vice president of brand and product. “I think people are craving honesty and richness in design again — things that age, change, and carry evidence of life.” A wide of colors and formats are available.
Bi-Loop is a modular bathroom vanity born from the pursuit of an authentic balance between aesthetics and functionality, Scarabeo says. The product is based on the concept of the loop as a formal and functional principle: a design continuity in which structure, volumes and materials interact harmoniously, responding to the needs of the homeowner. It consists of a painted metal frame, ceramic top and storage drawer. The tops are available in all Scarabeo ceramic colors, and the storage drawers are available in various wood finishes.

The new Solfege freestanding tub strikes the perfect balance of comfort, style and functionality, the brand says. It has a duo-tone design that features a glossy white interior and colorful soft exterior finish that includes matte champagne, matte rosemary green or glossy white. The form of Solfege was designed for those who prioritize minimalism, personality and delicate shapes in the home, the company says. Its drain cover comes standard in white, with optional finishes in chrome, brushed nickel, brushed gold or matte black. The tub is available in two configurations: Petite measures 55¼ inches long and Grande measures 63 inches.
The hardware brand has expanded its product portfolio with the addition of the new transitional collection called Cannelee, which features cabinet knobs and pulls sporting fluted detailing. “Our new collection, Cannelee, follows the rising trend of fluted accents in home decor,” says Tara Daggett, marketing director. “We looked to the columns of grand classical buildings when creating these knobs and pulls. Powerful grooves add visual intrigue to cabinets and designs that want to make a statement in a space.” It will be available in a knob, pull measuring 96 millimeters, 128 millimeters, 160 millimeters and 224 millimeters; and a 12-inch appliance pull. Finishes include matte black, brushed nickel and modern brushed gold.
The kitchen and bath brand says workstation sinks are trending again, driven in part by the influence of shows like Top Chef and Chopped. As a result, residential kitchens are increasingly expected to function like professional spaces. Enter the Concierge Collection of sinks, which reframes the workstation sink as an artisan-crafted design centerpiece. The sinks are hand-formed in NativeStone concrete, forged in hand-hammered copper or shaped in Italy by fireclay makers. A subtly angled ledge supports the included FSC-certified walnut cutting board, encouraging water to shed rather than collect.

The Omnia Ofuro bathtub is a modern interpretation of the traditional Japanese soaking tub. Inspired by centuries-old Japanese bathing traditions, this modern version is crafted from the brand’s epiStone, a blend of 70 percent organic crushed stone and minerals with a proprietary resin, creating a solid surface with incredible strength and durability, Ruvati says. It mimics the look of natural stone, is silky smooth to the touch and features a seamless, non-porous surface that is easy to clean and maintain. The tub measures 55 inches long, 29½ inches wide and 29¾ inches tall. Available in matte white or black with a stain powder finish, the tub has an interior bathing depth of 27 inches.
Piana Stone is the new material that Antoniolupi has added to its Piana collection. Designed by Nevio Tellatin in 2011, the modular bath collection is capable of simplifying the production process while multiplying compositional possibilities. The product comes in various shades of marble and the subtle nuances of the material enhance the design, the company says. Available in both wall-mounted and freestanding versions, the total stone look conveys the image of a unified block. A distinctive feature of the collection is the integrated handle groove, which defines the opening of the doors. The vanities are available in heights of 37.5 centimeter and 50 centimeter and come in a range of lengths and configurations.
