Reflex by antoniolupi

Once in a while a new bathroom product is released that completely wows us here at Candana. Reflex by Italian bathroom trendsetters antoniolupi is exactly that. Unlike anything we’ve seen before, the Reflex range is made from a new material designed specifically by antoniolupi: Cristalmood®. 

The Reflex range features a translucent design available in a plethora of colours from amber to cerulean and everything in between.

The range is now available at Candana with our very own display due to us in early 2021.

Cristalmood®

A new material, the result of antoniolupi research has been baptized Cristalmood® due to its transparency and sheen. A new generation coloured resin, resistant and versatile. Orginially created to produce basins combined with the most diverse materials and achieving refined color combinations Cristalmood® has now been used on a larger scale to make Reflex, the new bathtub by AL Studio design.

Cristalmood® is a coloured resin, transparent with a glossy finish, composed of high quality polyester resin and colouring pigments; it has passed all the anti-corrosion tests (salt spray) and can be cleaned with all the most common detergents. Thanks to the composition, objects made from Cristalmood® weigh about 30% less than those made with solid surfaces.

A new resin with extraordinary technical characteristics, designed to give lightness yet at the same time solidity to bathtubs and washbasins, a material that makes it possible to create soft and welcoming shapes and to restore the role of protagonist to water. The transparency of the surface makes it possible to observe the flow of the liquid, to read its movements, to follow its strength. After the launch at the last Salone del Mobile, antoniolupi has developed nine new trendy colours that are added to the Fumè proposal, thanks to which identity is awarded to the item, integrating it best in the context of bathroom style.

Thus Nebbia, Ocra, Bottle, Petroleum, Ginger, Cobalt, Sangria, Amber and Lime, and then Oleo Gran Cru and Ceruleo shades were born, which give color, elegance and liveliness to the plastic volumes made in Cristalmood. The chromatic variations that follow the geometry and the curved lines of washbasins and tubs give plastic behavior to the elements in a constant dialogue with the light.
