The Bathroom becomes an oasis of well-being with Laufen
Laufen continues to innovate, elevating the bathroom environment to the heart of daily well-being with two new collections: ARUN and CLEANET AURIA.
The main columns extend to the exterior of the building, creating protected indoor-outdoor spaces for balconies and terraces, and are lit at night, transforming the building into a vertical screen. The staggered block arrangement gives apartments light and air on all four sides. Thai elements — ceramic tiles, textiles and timber panelling — are abstracted to organise forms. Every horizontal surface is planted, and vertical faces are shaded by screens.
