Fates that meet up, opposite poles that attract, contrasts that balance, this is the philosophy that inspires ARTBOX by Megius, the new brand within the famous company wants to tell the provocations and the creative experimentation the more extreme and artistic and, at the same time, the more essential in the world of shower enclosures. The ARTBOX series in fact rework the traditional shower contents, introducing in addition to introducing well-defined volumes and square shapes, sinuous movements, almost hand-drawn, or a trick of lights and shades, thus offering a bathroom idea that, as the name suggests itself, plays with art in its various expressions. The result are original and elegant contrasts that want to offer innovative ideas of provocation and debate, outside of the box and the traditional axiom according to which the perfect shower is only “aesthetic and functional”. At the Salone del Bagno 2014, ARTBOX by Megius presented two series, Manolibera and Chiaroscuro, which are based on two different techniques and artistic expressions.
Chiaroscuro, with a height of 200 cm, the 6 mm glass panel, the articulated and flushed hinges, the handle and profiles in brilliant chrome, reveals a more eclectic personality that invites you to investigate unexplored pairs, through contrasts and tricks of lights.
MATERIA by MEGIUS dresses up with the leather collections designed by LAPELLE DESIGN
When the desire to dare and the experiment of one of the most important showers producer meets the inspiration of a tannery that, with over 60 years of history, decided to bring into the wall and floor coverings its leather manufacturing expertise, the results are special synergies and unusual contamination between fashion and design. That’s how we can describe the partnership between Megius, the shower manufacturer based in Padua and Lapèlle Design, the brand dedicated to wall coverings founded by Scamosceria Astico: a liaison in the name of the most creative design and of the most elegant and refined style that, on the occasion of the Salone del Bagno 2014, aimed to dress the shower Materia and the surrounding environment. Materia, as the name suggests itself, is a shower cabin that expresses the meeting point among different materials, thus starting original stylistic and textural paths in the shower scenario. In fact, this shower solution becomes a true “furniture shower” which aims to amaze and furniture with style, just like the other furniture elements, every home space.

At Salone del Bagno 2014, Lapèlle Desgin dressed up not only the shower but also the surrounding area with a mosaic of soft and flexible leather ties that, thanks to their special laying system, can be changed or moved each to everyone’s liking, thus creating a kaleidoscope of shapes and colours always different and new. The result is a smart and fashion shower and bathroom area, able to meet in shades and shapes both the tastes of those who prefer the classical and refined elegance and of those who love daring and expressing their exuberance and originality also in the home interior design.
