Sled bathtub by antoniolupi

Sled, the freestanding bathtub “carved” from water , is designed by Carlo Colombo

Sled is a freestanding bathtub based on alternating full and empty spaces. The starting point is an oval shape, a perfect geometry carved from several parts. The lowering of the edge offers a practical support surface for body care products.

Sled is a freestanding bathtub based on alternating full and empty spaces. The starting point is an oval shape, a perfect geometry carved from several parts. Two diagonal cuts dissect the depth of the pelvis, while an incision accompanies the perimeter in width. An element, the latter, which is transformed into a functional detail. The lowering of the edge caused by the incision, in fact, not only gives lightness and movement to the tub, but also offers a practical support surface for body care products.

The bathtub Slad  arises from the transformation of a perfect geometry, through two diagonal cuts that dissect the depth of the basin and an incision that follows the perimeter in width, as if to measure the longitudinal development of the edge.

The inspiration for Carlo Colombo's project is water, the great protagonist of the bathroom. Sled's cuts and engravings seem, in fact, created precisely by the action of water. As if a slow but constant process had shaped the material.

 

A bathtub that seems suspended in air

It's not just the cuts and incisions that make the bathtub feel light. The feeling of lightness of Sled is also accentuated by the base. Its small size, compared to the basin creates, in fact, a suspended effect. An effect that can be further enhanced with the use of a perimeter LED light that makes the support on the ground invisible.

 

The result is a sculptural form, imposing but welcoming, which almost seems to float in the air.

The sensation of suspension and absence of gravity is accentuated by the base of the bathtub, which has small dimensions compared to the volume that thus seems to float in the air. The base is in fact invisible and the basin of the tub appears to be suspended from the ground. This effect can be further accentuated with the use of a perimeter LED light that effectively cancels the support on the ground allowing the volume to "float" in the air.
