Over de badkuip
|
The bathroom is ever increasingly becoming part of our daily living environment. It's a space we enjoy spending time in and that deserves to be cherished.
|
This idea motivated the design of the bathtub 'Evolution': a combination of contemporary materials and artisan craftsmanship that's all about comfort.

Thomas Linssen:
“For this project I took the frame of a chair, designed with comfort and posture in mind, and let it evolve into a bathtub. |
The base of the bath is defined by its oak-wood 'skeleton', the hard composite tub slightly puffs up between the wooden beams, seemingly pushed into this shape naturally through water pressure.”
|
How it's made
|
The inner tub is made of a fibreglass reinforced polyester/marble composite. To produce it, House of Thol closely collaborates with a manufacturer that has years of experience working with similar materials in the boating industry.
|
The frame is made of American white oak, bent, shaped and assembled by hand in our workshop in the Netherlands.
