SONAR BY PATRICIA URQUIOLA FOR LAUFEN

Sonar is the refined and graceful bathroom collection designed by Patricia Urquiola for Swiss brand Laufen, globally renowned for their abilities in design, quality and functionality. Expressive and yet minimalist, Sonar’s formal language plays with arcs and angles, emphasising the slender edges of the ceramic. To further enhance the lightness of the objects, Urquiola and Laufen developed a fine, three dimensional texture for the external surfaces of the washbasin bowls and also the freestanding bathtub. The textured version can be selected as an optional alternative to the traditional smooth surface and is reminiscent of sound waves propagating in water.The Sonar collection includes bathtubs, floorstanding and wallmounted washbasins, two washbasin bowls and a double washbasin bowl, also available in white matt together with a new furniture collection with exciting finishes in Nero Marquina contrasting with dramatic copper, titanium and gold for a luxurious finish.

TRANSFORMING THE BATHROOM TO A LIVING ENVIRONMENT

The personality of this highly traditional Swiss brand reflects a symbiosis of design, quality and functionality. LAUFEN, the premium brand under the ROCA umbrella, is one of the world's leading manufacturers with a global distribution network.

The company's core competence is its knowledge in the area of sanitary ware manufacturing. Over 125 years, the LAUFEN brand has been using the oldest malleable material known to man to make innovative sanitary products in state-of-the-art plants with legendary Swiss precision. Knowledge of the bathroom as a whole developed from the competence of LAUFEN in ceramics manufacturing, and sophisticated design. What makes LAUFEN products unique at the first glance is that their Swiss design unites two major design trends: emotional Italian design from the south and the northern tradition of design precision and clarity.

For LAUFEN, quality has two aspects: manufacturing knowledge and high degree of practical benefit that the finished bathroom affords the customer – which is often not immediately apparent. LAUFEN, a Swiss company manufacturing products that allow water, a precious resource, to be used sparingly, demonstrates in this manner a commitment to preserving natural resources and environmentally- friendly production.
