A matte finish transforms how ceramics look and feel: They’re smoother and softer but still retain their clean lines. TOTO has added two matte finishes in black and white to highlight the dialogue between light and shadow – simultaneously understated, yet expressive. The result is a language of form that enhances private bathrooms as well as sophisticated commercial spaces, from hotels and exclusive restaurants to representative areas in public buildings.
TOTO is expanding the collections of selected ceramic products to include two new versions with matte finishes: The RP Toilet, WASHLET RW and the symmetrical TA Vessel are now available in matte black and matte white. These ceramic products come with coordinating push plates and remote controls in matte black or white. The timelessly elegant ZL Faucet is also available in matte black and brushed nickel. Equipped with these new options, it’s possible to create a variety of different material and colour schemes – from streamlined, monochromatic solutions to warm, textured accents.
The same products are timelessly minimalist in matte white. They bring an effortless and understated lightness to the bathroom, making the space appear larger. The matte finish surface makes the ceramics almost feel cozy – enhancing the feel of a streamlined bathroom design that reflects the Japanese values of balance and moderation. At the same time, TOTO is giving designers more flexibility and freedom to create uniquely creative concepts. These versatile ceramics are flexible, elegant solutions for modern bathrooms that complement all kinds of interiors and designs.
