During the 60th edition of the Salone del Mobile in Milan, Jaquar – a leading manufacturer of bathroom and wellness systems – presents a preview of the new Artize catalog, guest at the Punto Tre and Outerra space at the fair.
The protagonist of the appointments is once again Laguna, designer collection by Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez, which has already won the German Design Award 2021. The design studied by the duo is formally characterized by essential lines, where modularity and lightness become the key design factors. This modular system, in which everything that is not indispensable has been removed, offers a mix of combinations and finishes for private spaces and the contract world. The products are also made from zero-impact materials, whose production chain is certified by the Lead Platinum Factory. Laguna today comprises more than fifty catalog items: a series of taps in various single and two-color finishes, a frameless shower enclosure, freestanding and whirlpool baths, a complete range of sanitary ware, and more.
“The entire Laguna collection,” said Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez, “has been designed with a view to lower material consumption: this is made possible through the reduction of sections and a process that involves the complete recycling of metal and water used in production. Even in everyday use, without the consumer noticing, we significantly reduce water consumption through a state-of-the-art aerator.”
The Jaquar Group, founded in New Delhi in 1960, operates with the Jaquar and Artize brands internationally and is among the leading manufacturers of faucets, wellness and complete bathroom systems. Always sensitive to the theme of recycling and reducing waste, the company at its production sites already recycles 500,000 litres of water a day, 4,221 tonnes of brass a year and produces 6.23 MW of solar energy. Operating sustainably is, therefore a key objective to which the company works consistently: from the design choices regarding products to the production phase, not forgetting the company headquarters and offices.
The company’s invitation is, therefore to discover the many novelties not only in the renovated concept store, but also at the Fair, at the historic partner Punto Tre as far as Laguna is concerned, and at Outerra for the kitchen-related novelties.
Among the latter, Jaquar Group presents the new collections of the Artize brand inspired by the great masters of art. Therefore, we can find FLO2 – a line where versatility and ergonomics meet to bring comfort and elegance to the kitchen – and Linea – where the bold visual vocabulary draws on the revolutionary Suprematist paintings of the early 20th century. Finally, the mixers in the Rainjoy Plus line are inspired by the work of Hokusai to celebrate water in motion, just like the famous Japanese artist’s iconic print.
