Details

Created by architect Angelo Bucci, the DocolConcreta line consists of three bowl models with a unique identity due to their handmade production process and their unprecedented raw material for this application: DocolTecton , Docol’s high-strength microconcrete. This is a strong material with very low porosity. This feature, in addition to facilitating moulding, ensures its high mechanical strength even at reduced thicknesses. Its production causes low environmental impact because items moulded in this material do not require a furnace to achieve resistance, allowing for lower energy consumption and less environmental impact.

The Jury‘s Statement

The strikingly reduced design language and use of micro concrete lend »DocolConcreta« a charismatic yet timeless presence. The harmonious interplay of slender edges, subtle nuances and sustainable production highlights the project’s consistent design approach. Particularly impressive is the convincing balance between aesthetics, functionality and ecological responsibility. Exceptional material quality and a powerful visual statement exemplify a forward-thinking understanding of sophisticated bathroom architecture at its best.
