The gesture of immersion in hot water - the Japanese say that the ideal temperature is around 43 degrees - the hectic time of ordinary work and social activities settles on a slower rhythm, measured on breathing and the heartbeat of our heart. From this distant ritual, which is still repeated today, ryokans and public baths of the land of the Rising Sun, antoniolupi draws, with Carlo Colombo, the project of the OFURO bathtub, modulated around a large and generous geometry. An elegant form, a large sculpture, a bathtub that seems to have been made from a single block, worked, cut by the skillful hand of man or eroded by the natural force of water. The coexistence of straight lines and sharp edges with soft shapes and curved surfaces values the composition allowing to also contemplate the corner placement of it. The lowered edge in the front invites you to enter, to immerse yourself completely both in the freestanding version and when it is recessed into the floor and takes on the image of a bucket of natural water. Ofuro is made of Flumood and has a variable thickness edge, wider in some parts with the consequent possibility of supporting objects and body care products, thinner in others to lighten the imposing volume. The bathtub can be equipped with LED light integrated at the base resulting in a feeling of elegance, lightness and suspension.
