KALLISTO consists of two elements: the taps group and the shower head on the wall. The taps group, designed to adapt to any pre-existing flat surface, encloses three different functions in a single formal element. Inside, there is a mixer taps and a switch, along with the attachment for the hand shower and the soap holder outside. This unique design allows for easy installation and maintenance without the need to break walls or tiles.
The shower head on the wall is also designed to adapt to the most common pre-existing installations. It is fixed with simple wall plugs and has a half-inch attachment for the water jet. The silicone spout ensures easy cleaning of limestone, making it a practical and hygienic choice for modern bathrooms.
One of the standout features of KALLISTO is the material used in its construction: CRISTALPLANT. This technologically advanced compound is made up of a high percentage of mineral extenders from nature, as well as polyester and acrylic polymers. CRISTALPLANT is 100% recyclable, fireproof, UV-resistant, and non-porous, making it both durable and hygienic. Its velvety and natural stone-like finish adds a touch of elegance to any bathroom.
The development of KALLISTO took place in 2012/2013, with extensive research and testing of various solid surfaces before settling on CRISTALPLANT. The design was presented at the Salone del Mobile in Milan and ISH in Frankfurt in 2013, garnering attention for its innovative approach to bathroom design.
KALLISTO has received recognition for its exceptional design. It was awarded the Silver A' Design Award in the Bathroom Furniture and Sanitary Ware Design category in 2014. This prestigious award is given to designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise, innovation, and artistic skill. KALLISTO's ability to seamlessly integrate multiple functions into a single element sets it apart from traditional bathroom fixtures.
With its sleek design, adaptability, and focus on ease of use and recyclability, KALLISTO is a testament to the future of bathroom design. By combining form and function in a single element, tonettidesign has created a truly unique and innovative solution for modern bathrooms.
