a showering achievement

The graceful lines of a ship’s hull inspired the slender curve and natural wood composition of the Aqvaplana shower panel from Aqvadesign. The 2-inch-thick panel—constructed of ebony, paduk, zebrawood, or other rich species—provides a discreet hiding place for the shower’s aerated jets and self-cleaning technology. Highly polished chrome fittings and an optional adjustable handrail enhance the exotic design. Aqvadesign Italy, 39.0161.860254; www.aqvaplana.com.
