Getting Hot and Steamy with Gessi Showers

White - The Ultimate Classic

As Spring beckons we all think of updating or spring cleaning our homes.  If you are looking for a quick change and have painted walls selecting a new colour is the quickest way to update a room without breaking the bank.  White never ages, never goes out of fashion and is a design classic both in interiors and fashion.

You can select from the many shades of white by Farrow + Ball, from All White to Wevet - if you are not local to Dorset it means a spider's web which hints at the delicate tones of the shade.  Here at Soak in Style we use Farrow + Ball when painting our clients baths which we do quite often.

 

What does White do to a space?

• White adds brilliance and purity to a room
• White is never out of date - a classic is a classic for a reason
• White brightens and illuminates a dark room

 
If you are thinking of updating your bathroom White is a fabulous colour to choose.

Winter White.  Summer White.  All shades of White.  Bright.  Calming.  Chic.  Classy.  Clean.  Cool.  Elegant.

Soak in Style designed and supplied 8 bathrooms for the refurbishment of a large family home in Beaconsfield.  Most of the bathrooms were white with a pop of colour either in the furniture for the childrens' bathroom, or with plants or accessories.

If you are not sure about a totally white bathroom or it doesn't suit your lifestyle consider adding warmth with wood effect floor tiles, or add colour with towels and / or plants.  You can still benefit from a calm and restful space.  A bathroom designer will be able to offer advice and suggest colours and products that fit in with your lifestyle.

Gessi iSpa - Health through Water

iSpa - GESSI ETHICAL DESIGN

Gessi introduces their iSPA collection, designed by Prospero Rasulo, a philosophy more than a new range of products for its combination of contemporary “Hi-Tech” and millenary spirit of the “Salus per Aquam” (Health through water). 
The Gessi ethical approach to design and production has changed the bathroom into a high-technology and above all a “Hi-Touch” place.

Ispa Basin Mixer Pulse

Throughout the new range iSpa Gessi brings innovative design, blending  the high technology “soft touch” of the “I” and bringing a more human orientated approach to designing practical objects.  Gessi design uses a concept of “Biodesign” which is inspired by natural, organic forms to produce tactile products that accomplish a relaxed sophistication and serenity so you can create a personal spa in your bathroom.  Sensuous simplicity marks the concept of the iSpa collection which has been designed by Prospero Rasulo.  
Truly inspirational Italian Style.  

Gessi ISpa

The stylistic feature of the Collection is a rectangular shape made smooth by corners rounded as  if glossed by water. The iSpa Collection is a user-friendly and tactile form, as pleasing to the eye as to the touch.

Gessi ISpa Mixer White

Gessi iSpa is a complete bathroom collection; from the taps to accessories, wellness systems, ceramic-ware, and mirrors.  Gessi iSpa also heralds the first bath designed and manufactured by Gessi.

With its substantially formal lines, the iSpa mixer gives the impression of an architectural product; well-engineered proportions between a lean base and a wide surface on the tap mouth makes the metal plate look lighter and somewhat suspended, with water oozing out of thin air.

The iSpa controls are minimal – a soft-touch mixer either electronic or fashioned like a sleek joystick, allows easy adjustment of the water flow and temperature.

Gessi iSpa Shower Blade

In the electronic version of the iSpa mixer, the distribution of water is activated by a soft touch of the mixer button. Every time the tap is used, it usually distributes cold water, so the boiler is not ignited; saving energy. The desired temperature of water is reached by rotating the mixer button. Its light enhanced base of the button signals the actual temperature of water between blue and red. The flow can be reduced or increased  by pressing and rotating the mixer button. At a double touch of the button mixed water immediately flows, tapping the button 3 times produces hot water. If the button is pushed continuously for some seconds the tap turns onto stand-by mode for 30 seconds signalled by a pulsating green light; during this time the tap can be cleaned without its activation.

iSpa is not only beauty, ergonomics, functionality and meticulous production which is made in Italy, but the start of a new production approach and a new project which combines ethical design with respect for the environment: Gessi Ethical Design.
