Bathrooms of the future: the marvels of smart-technology
The bathroom is arguably the most important room in the house. Keeping the space up to date with the latest trends and technologies is imperative if you want to impress.
There has been a growing trend of technology being incorporated into bathroom appliances, with new products and gadgets on the market transforming modern bathrooms from mediocre to magnificent.
For those of you considering a bathroom update; incorporating technology into the bathroom doesn’t have to drastically alter the look and feel of the room. It can simply enhance the experience. Here are some high-tech appliances we’ve hand picked which will have your bathroom looking like an executive suite, fit for the pages of a glossy magazine.
The bathroom mirror is no longer only used to reflect. In modern technological bathrooms that is merely one in a myriad of high-tech features. The Arcisan Eneo Backlit Mirror is a great way to subtly incorporate the technology trend into your bathroom. The mirror has a magnifying function and a demister, both operated via the touch switch, and uses the latest LED technology for long life.
Kohler’s new Veil Toilet (available at E&S in July) is a prime example of technological luxury in the bathroom. With its sleek futuristic design and hidden cistern, this wall hung ‘smart toilet’ could almost be passed off as a piece of furniture in the bathroom.
The Veil is so much more than just a pretty face (or ‘pretty seat and cover’ as the case may be) as its sleek design and gently dished shape has been designed to minimise pressure points for extra comfort. It is also remote controlled, self-cleaning and sensor activated, with the simple one touch remote offering functions such as soft, pulsating or spiral wash with an instant air-infused warm water; choice of water temperature; warm air dryer with adjustable temperature control; and seat temperature adjustment.
That’s right, seat temperature! Many new cars still don’t offer seat warmers but this smart-technology toilet does.
Another product that encapsulates both futuristic smart technology and bathroom comfort is the Kohler Escale Freestanding Bubblemassage Bath. This sleek bath contains multiple air-holes which release tiny therapeutic bubbles as you bathe. The bath also comes with a removable white bath pillow and adjustable feet for optimum levels of comfort!
Embracing this trend of incorporating smart technology into your bathroom will make you feel like you are being transported into the future every time you enter this most important of rooms. With its minimalistic smooth chrome design this bath will have your guests admiring its modern looks, while it’s smart technology features will give you every bit as much comfort as a day spa.
