The Fast and the Furious of Bathing. Tetsuya Nakamura, has given new meaning to a fast wash with these super luxurious designer bathroom fixtures. So if driving around in your Buggatti isn't enough for you during the day; then in the evening you can come home, and wash away the headaches in totally impossible style.
Implications - Given its smooth texture and swirling colors, these fixtures kind of have a glass-blown aesthetic. But the reality is, these pieces have been sculpted from fiber-reinforced plastics. What's cool is that the Premium Set encourages purchasers to add their own custom body paint to the fixtures. As cool as these look, the design is more about form and less about function--so bathe at your own risk.
