Totem is far more than a faucet; it is the definitive statement of intent, marking IB’s new era in stainless steel. Conceived as a manifesto product, Totem shifts the focus from individual details to the object as a whole, redefining the formal language of the contemporary bathroom. The project is rooted in a rigorous yet generative geometric rule: a singular diameter for the water conduits, and a doubled diameter for all interaction and junction elements.
This proportional balance transforms functional components, such as the rose, into true architectural pedestals, elevating the technical body into a domestic sculpture. In an age where the bathroom evolves into a fluid extension of the living area, Totem acts as a piece of furniture. It does not merely serve a function; it dialogues with the innovative materials of modern interior design, offering architects an object of profound aesthetic and emotional value. It is the synthesis of Brescia’s industrial heritage and a revolutionary vision of living: a story of matter and precision that transcends form to become an icon.
