Duravit presented its Aurena collection designed by renowned Italian architect Antonio Citterio at its showcase at Salone del Mobile 2024. According to Duravit, Aurena is a versatile interior-design all-rounder; as equally suited for use in private or guest bathrooms as in signature properties such as hotels, medical offices, or office and restaurant restrooms.
Antonio Citterio’s designs for matching bathtubs, toilets, bidet, and a mirror create a harmonious concept. The integrated bathtub is made from the new cast-mineral material DuroCast Smooth, whilst the back-to-wall models and freestanding bathtub are made from DuroCast Plus. The chamfered edge at the rim of each bathtub provides an elegant finish. The wall-standing variant features a storage box that forms a connecting element between the organically shaped bathtub and the wall and has been designed in keeping with the washbasin vanity tops.
The collection is the first complete ceramic series to be launched with the new HygieneGlaze Plus surface. This unique bathroom upgrade combines unsurpassed hygiene with effortless, environmentally sound cleaning.
Antonio Citterio said: “The idea was to structure surfaces and create a sense of order that positively influences the quality of the overall room.”
