Sensuous Leather Artistry

When held in one’s hand, the feel of leather is both sensual and luxurious. Yet, it has a certain warmth to it, leaving you with the impression of pure bliss. Thus, one’s home is deserving of the same extravagance.

AXOR launches AXOR Places, a brand campaign that explores well-known design partners’ fond memories of a certain place, encounter, adventure or even mood, and materialising these them. This latest campaign connects the ‘Places of Memory’ of AXOR design partners, such as Jean-Marie Massaud, Phoenix Design, or Barber & Osgerby and the unique possibilities the AXOR MyEdition faucet collection has to offer.

From marble, wood or even leather – the latest faucet collection AXOR offers its user the freedom of choice when it comes to the material used for its mounting plates. Each individual faucet is crafted with the finest materials. The collection goes through an artisanal manufacturing process by experienced and ardent craftsmen and women.

Applying the similar quality of craftsmanship, the leather collection goes through exacting standards when reviewing the quality of material used and designing the mounting plates. The hides from southern German or Austrian cattle are inspected by hand and the surfaces are checked for any flaws. Much of the processing of the AXOR MyEdition mounting plate, such as sewing the cover plate or hot stamping the AXOR logo, is done conscientiously by hand.

To experience the sensuous warmth of leather in your home, it is important to remove the misconception that leather can’t be used in wet environments. For example, Nappa leather is used in the interior design of yachts, which makes it apparent that it would not be a problem when leather is designed onto the AXOR mounting plates and used in lavatories. Making it the perfect example of a durable and tangible design.
