SX, design Makio Hasuike & Co

Essential lines are the distinctive feature of the SX series. The combination of the cement of the accessories with the steel of the body of the products is the material detail that surprises.

Among the main interpreters of the Linea Inox by CRISTINA Rubinetterie, the SX series stands out, designed by Studio Makio Hasuike & Co. and winner of the Archiproducts Design Award in the year 2018.

The result of an attentive work of design with an extremely impacting result from an aesthetic point of view that is lightened by an almost timeless stylistic elegance.

The design was inspired by the steel shower column of the same Inox series, one of the protagonists of outdoor environments worldwide. The cylindrical element of the SX, linear and minimalist, is defined by Hasuike as "curved with a swing”.

The SX includes 4 spout variants with controls that can be remotely mounted on the wall or on the surface. This solution is immensely popular with designers as it allows for a high degree of customisation of the bathroom environment. A version with a control integrated into the body of the mixer is also available.

The aesthetic perfection of SX is highlighted by the choice of concealing all the working details, including the aerator, hidden in the lower part of the spout thanks to a conical shape that, anyhow, allows it to be inspected.

The freestanding solution for the bathtub and washbasin has a cement resin top, treated to be water-repellent and stain-resistant and is attached to the tap body with a swivel support, so that it can be rotated and positioned as and where desired. A material and functional choice that expresses the company's industrial capacity, never detached from the know-how of high craftsmanship from which it was born.

The inclusion of a shower column in the SX series for indoor use, with a wall-mounted mixer, offers a further element of completeness and customisation.

All the Inox collections by CRISTINA Rubinetterie are treated with a grain 3 finish to make them immune to the unsightly fingerprint effect and to give the products high luminosity and full materiality. The products in this series are also characterised by total resistance to corrosion, a high hygiene coefficient, thus food certification.
