Sans Nom Studio and Salaris Studio work in collaboration to design the Beam Bathtub for the Italian label Ex.t. The elevated new bathtub design sits on top of a unique hardwood base foundation that is inspired by metal architecture profiles. The base elevates the tub to create a lighter look instead of the usual block on the ground.
The versatile look of the Beam comes in a range of materials, colors, and finishes offered by Ex.t to adapt to any bathroom style. The base is also very visually appealing on top of being functional as it allows the technical elements of the design to be out of sight. Due to this, it can also be placed in the middle of the room instead of limiting it to the side of a wall.
