Three collections, one vision: Inbani’s architectural approach to the bathroom
In Inbani’s design language, the bathroom moves beyond pure functionality to become an integral part of the home. It is conceived with the same care and intentionality as living spaces, where architecture, materiality, and proportion come together to create a balanced, cohesive experience. The Grate, Heritage, and Origin collections articulate this vision through three distinct interpretations, united by a shared formal discipline and a refined dialogue between volumes, surfaces, and light.
Designed by Norm Architects, Grate explores rhythm as a compositional principle. Fluted surfaces take center stage, creating a visual cadence of solids and voids, shadow and depth. The result echoes the language of classical architecture, reinterpreted through a contemporary lens with restraint and precision.
The bathroom is conceived as an ordered system of linear elements: suspended or freestanding basins, modular units, storage components, and fittings are arranged in compositions that feel essential yet never rigid. Oak and marble introduce a warm, sophisticated tactility, softening the collection’s architectural rigor and lending the space a more intimate atmosphere. Light—both natural and artificial—glides across the fluted surfaces, enhancing their rhythm and turning each plane into a dynamic, living element.
With Heritage, designed by Patrick Norguet, Inbani revisits the formal legacy of Greek architecture through an essential, sculptural vocabulary. References to classical columns are never literal; instead, they emerge through vertical proportions, calibrated volumes, and the monolithic presence of each piece.
Bathtubs, basins, and furnishings appear as solid, almost archetypal forms, carved from matter. Surfaces are compact and unadorned, allowing materials—wood, solid surface, and Carrara marble—to define the character of each object. Heritage lends the bathroom a solemn yet measured tone, where past and present converge in a sense of timeless balance.
Origin, designed by Seung-Yong Song, stems from a return to fundamentals. The collection explores the purity of primary forms and materials, shaping a restrained yet nuanced language in which craftsmanship and industrial precision coexist seamlessly.
Bathrooms unfold as bright, open environments where basins, bathtubs, mirrors, and furnishings are introduced with discretion, never asserting themselves unnecessarily. Marble, natural wood, metal, and glass compose a balanced material landscape defined by smooth surfaces, controlled thicknesses, and carefully resolved joints. Each element is conceived to endure—not only through its construction quality, but through its ability to adapt to different contexts while maintaining a consistent, understated presence.
Together, Grate, Heritage, and Origin present three distinct interpretations of the bathroom, bound by a clear and thoughtful vision. Across all three, Inbani affirms a design culture rooted in architectural rigor, precisely selected materials, and an aesthetic language capable of remaining relevant over time—restoring the bathroom to its rightful place as an integral part of the home’s overall design narrative.
