bathroom: they can be positioned at different angles on counters and the floor. You ‘interact’ in your space now, and with whom you are there. PLURAL exalts the concept of color mixing and the non-whiteness of bathrooms, proclaiming that yes, it’s OK TO MIX THINGS UP. (Light grey, beige, anthracite black, mat white and American Walnut all go wonderfully together.) The furniture feeling of its design insures a homey and domestic environment in your new bathroom; a vintage ’salotto’ is more the feeling. New technology feels at home here too: there are 3 innovative ’syphon systems’ which enable PLURAL to be so free.
