A round and sustainable shower tray for AIA's wellness bathroom for Tarimatec at Casa Decor

“'Estratos' is not crossed; it is discovered,” explain Casa Decor. The renowned Madrid interior design fair refers to the original “wellness bathroom” conceived for Tarimatec by AIA, a multidisciplinary team of architects, interior designers, and engineers with over 35 years of experience.

The space, created from a warm layered architecture, is organised into four consecutive areas: threshold, vanity, active water, and immersion. Light, material, and section evolve as the journey progresses, with Tarimatec taking centre stage: it is innovatively used as flooring, cladding, lattice, and visual filter.

AIA's project, like Tarimatec's products, has a sustainable vocation. It chooses durable, low-maintenance materials such as Dekton Nacre, which is incorporated into a custom-cut round shower tray to complement the organic quality brought by the numerous curves of the space. The colour, a cream that oscillates between fine microcement and lime stucco with a relief gradient, aligns with the earthy and natural palette of 'Estratos', while its cradle-to-grave zero carbon footprint makes it the perfect choice in terms of environmental respect.

Dekton Nacre is also present on the vanity worktop, where it stands out for both its aesthetics and functionality, as a damp cloth is enough to clean it. Moreover, this ultra-compact and antimicrobial surface does not scratch or react to impacts, and it can even withstand the heat of items like hair straighteners, which can be left on it without concern.

“Estratos” also incorporates plants into its design, as well as low-energy lighting, a water recirculation system that optimises water consumption and improves resource efficiency, and a high percentage of removable and reusable elements. All of this proves that top-level design (AIA holds numerous awards and regularly works with major international companies) is not at odds with energy efficiency.
