Closer is the most eclectic of Zucchetti's recent creations.Dynamic, flexible and iconic...this new showerhead reinvents the movements we associate with showering. In Closer, Zucchetti has interpreted modern life and created a product that captures the taste and sensitivity of a public that is searching for new experiences in the bathroom, both from a sensory and functional perspective.Designer Diego Grandi’s starting point was an aim to bring the normally static bathroom space to life, through an object with strong expressive potential and plenty of scope for dynamism. “Movement was an essential concept for me right from the start, to the extent that I always imagined this piece set in the centre of the room, so that the whole environment becomes ‘the water's space’, not just a certain part of it”. Closer distances itself from the usual formal references, instead offering a truly original, creative and functional reimagining of the shower column. It recalls the aesthetics of a lamp, and embraces all the poetics inherent to the idea of balance, capable of renewing itself and changing its appearance without warning. The cylindrical counterweight ensures that the showerhead is stable in any position and at any height, and acts as a visual counterpoint within the overall composition. The whole structure has been designed to be adjusted and extended simply and intuitively. It has a total of three joints, each of which has wide scope for multi-directional movement. This allows many different spatial configurations to be created, which in turn translates into an equally wide range of methods for the user to control and direct the jet of water, for a personalised bathing experience free from all restrictions. Thanks to Closer, water can now dance in space... throwing off its usual shackles and becoming a free expression of our needs, providing unique wellbeing to experience every day.

Zucchetti Rubinetteria: new projects for the company on its 76th anniversary Zucchetti Rubinetteria blow out 76 candles, a significant achievement that prompts them to look at the future by thinking back on the past, remembering how much the company has been able to grow and become the major player it is today. A solid family tradition: three generations starting from 1929, when production was just brass taps, fittings and valves. Today's taps are very different from the first products, but the guidelines that have supported the evolution have always been clear from the very beginning: an attentive and constant technological research, which has enabled cutting-edge products to be realised and the decision to aim at quality, abandoning competition on price and considering the design of the product to be the essential identifying competitive factor. One fundamental aspect is the company's capacity for innovation and production, but also their decision to use the constant support of various external designers and architects, indeed, some of the most important in Italy, who have stimulated technological research and the updating of products with their studies and formal ideas. A patrimony of ideas that, as in other fields, has made Italian style renowned throughout the world. Today Zucchetti Rubinetteria can rightfully be defined as an international brand, the distinctive features of which are Italian design and technological know-how. A genuine Group, with 5 plants, in charge of different areas of production, with specific skills and expertise capable of covering all the production areas of the sector of taps and fittings and bathroom/kitchen accessories. 76 years have gone by and now more than ever the company is energetic and motivated in its continuous process of growth.
