Domestic sculptures

The freestanding bathtubs by Kreoo are sculpted in marble, the result of industrial processes and manual procedures

They take form in marble, carved from a single block and crafted with a combination of industrial processes and manual procedures. Like sinuous sculptures that fully convey the beauty of the material, which is natural, ancient, unique in every piece. Veins and nuances, together with a focus on thicknesses and ergonomics, create true works of art for the home, ideal fulcrums of domestic wellbeing. Kreoo is their maker, in collaboration with the creativity of designers like Matteo Nunziati, Alberto Apostoli, Enzo Berti.

The natural stone finds maximum expression in five distinctive models, starting with Hug (designed by Matteo Nunziati), a marble shell with soft forms, into which to insert wooden shelving in walnut or eucalyptus at the front. The shelves are shaped and rhythmically paced by three vertical elements that make it possible to place accessories and towels, for maximum functional performance.

Also Pearl (designed by Alberto Apostoli) stems from the encounter between two materials, generating contrasting sensorial combinations: the outside is irregular, produced in Olive Grey marble, while the inside is smooth and pale, made with a resin for a mother-of-pearl finish.

Kalypso and Venice are entirely in marble, personalized with a selection of seven different materials: Kalypso is harmonious and essential, with a neoclassical tone, while Venice is elegant, tapered, bringing out the patterns of the natural stone.

Kora by Kreoo, design Enzo Berti

Finally comes Kora: it has the look of a monolith excavated from a single block, with an upper profile at variable heights to facilitate entry and to create an image of exceptional refinement. The tub is raised by a trestle with a finish in gold, dark bronze or matte black, and seems to float on the slender metal structure.
