Axor Showerpipe by Front

Flowing technology

There was a time when water for daily use was taken from a river. As time went by, technology replaced the direct contact with water. The design of the Axor Showerpipe by Front aims to draw attention to the hidden aesthetics of this technology. In this collection, pipes, valves and funnels turn into charming design objects which relate to traditional forms. The clear form of the shower head takes a funnel as its model. It has been designed with great precision and gives the appearance of a well-proportioned tool. Thus, a visually appealing product stems from what was originally a purely functional component. The complete set is made up of a thermostat, a height-adjustable head shower, with two spray types, and a hand shower. It offers the user a pleasant showering experience. Ribbing makes the handles easy to grip and the valve handles are simple to operate. Through its clear language of form, the shower may be used in combination with other Axor collections and integrates well into any interior. Various special surfaces are also available. The well-balanced design of the Axor Showerpipe by Front offers an original experience of water and technology – with all the comforts of today.
