Bliss is a collection of three-hole taps designed by Annabella Hevesi for Rubinetterie Treemme. The range strikes a perfect balance between geometric rigour and formal sensitivity, in which water acts as a narrative and architectural element.
An archetype reinterpreted for the contemporary bathroom
Bliss features a distinctive three-hole configuration, with two separate controls and a central spout. The act of combining hot and cold water thus retains a clarity that takes on a special significance for the designer: “Perhaps clarity has now become a form of luxury.” Carefully balanced proportions and clean lines lend a contemporary feel to this composition.
Where water and body come together
“The tap is the bridge between the human body and water,” explains Annabella Hevesi. The curved lines of Bliss evoke the shapes formed by the surface tension of water and the gentle contours of the body, such as the skin between the fingers or the outline of the lips. The composition also bears a certain resemblance to the human figure, with the two controls and the central opening reminiscent of two hands and a head. The design subtly captures the essence of this inspiration.
Form follows gesture
Touch guides the design of the controls. The cross-shaped handle, a distinctive feature of traditional taps, takes on a lighter essence, thanks to soft contours and a design specifically crafted to complement the grip, while the smooth, seamless lines of the spout incorporate the references to the body and water that inspired the collection.
Stainless steel and PVD finishes
Crafted from stainless steel, Bliss is available in a brushed steel finish and in a range of PVD finishes, offering designers greater flexibility for combining it with other materials and surfaces in the bathroom.
