Antonio Linares, Senior Managing Director Laufen and CNEE Division in an interview about the fascination of the bathroom, attractive markets and the importance of "Swissness".

Konstantin Grcic has designed a flexible scenography for the Laufen space in Berlin and rebranded the showroom typology as an innovative hybrid. The result: a radical free space for dialog and experiment.

With the Laufen virtual space, Laufen has created a place where the boundaries between the digital and physical worlds become blurred and where the company's bathroom collections can be experienced in a new way.

With the Laufen space in Milan, Laufen has created a multifaceted venue that seeks to encourage dialogue between art, design, and architecture.

This year, the Vienna Design Week offers a lot of space for design research, social design and experimental approaches. Its function as a multidisciplinary platform is underlined in numerous talks, workshops and tours. Our review.

The supersalone, the special event of the Salone del Mobile curated by Stefano Boeri, offered a platform for creative experiments from 5 to 10 September 2021 that shows what an international furniture fair should be in the future. Our review.

September is approaching and with it the supersalone – a highly anticipated event that brings the design scene back together in Milan after the dry spell of the last few months. In addition to the exhibition at the fairgrounds, you can look forward to a wide range of events in the city. We show you which events you should not miss.

The lifestyle Gekko House hotel in Frankfurt/Main makes much of contrasts. One of the places where this is highly visible is in the design of its bathrooms, each equipped with its own distinctive washbasins and toilets by Laufen.

This year, the ISH took place entirely digitally. We take a closer look at which elements we found exciting and where we might have made adjustments.

With their collection “Kartell by Laufen”, Laufen and Kartell are exploring just what is possible in bathroom design. The photographs by Hugo Comte and Oliver Helbig illustrate the creative scope in this respect.

With its “Bespoke Service” Laufen offers individual solutions for the bathroom. The Scott Sports HQ near Berne and a residential building in London demonstrate how the Swiss corporation also masters challenging projects.

For the "Impressões" project, artists from Brazil have worked on an unusual surface: a ceramic sculpture that the Swiss sanitary ceramics manufacturer Laufen created especially for this purpose. A film documents this very special cooperation.

The solution to a global problem could be a new toilet bowl developed by Vienna-based studio EOOS.
