Villeroy & Boch: Feel-good hues for the bathroom – Artis surface-mounted washbasins in new colours
Earthy, dark shades are one of the key interior trends for 2025. “They create a sense of security”, explains the designer Gesa Hansen, who has developed the new Artis colour concept for Villeroy & Boch. With four new full-surface matt shades – Pure Black, Almond, Nightfall and Teal – Artis reflects the trend towards powerful midtones while adding its own very individual note.
Creating peaceful retreats
“In an increasingly hectic, uprooted world, we yearn for peaceful havens”, says Hansen. “The depth effect of shadows and darkness creates a kind of shelter from the stimulation of the outside world.” With Nightfall, a deep midnight blue, and Pure Black, a calming deep black, she has chosen two colours that address this need for security. The shades are rounded off by “beams of light”: Almond, a soft, warm beige, and Teal, a vibrant blue-green. These can be used to add accents and contrasts.
Even more colour intensity
The four new shades are not just extending the colour spectrum of the Artis collection. As well as the familiar BiColour series, for the first time the selection also includes single-coloured surface-mounted washbasins that bring even greater intensity and calm into the bathroom. Like all other pieces, they are made from high-quality TitanCeram and impress with their exceptional stability. All Artis surface-mounted washbasins are available in the four shapes of round, oval, square and rectangular and can be combined with furniture from collections including Finion and Antao. Artis Guest offers a smaller-sized version in round and oval shapes – perfect for sensational guest bathrooms.
