Bathroom month wouldn't be complete with showcasing the Spoon Tub from Agape. A perennial fixture at Moss in Soho, the Spoon Tub was designed by G.P Benedini in 1998 out of Exmar, a composite of resin and quartz powder that has advanced heat retention. To us the shape seems just about perfect for a modern tub, rather like the bottom half of an exotic egg...
mmmm, yeah, i like.

The design still looks impressive 10 years later, especially in front of the red wall.

I dream about this tub, if only it weren't for the (insane) price tag...

...much more beautiful than the XL version developed for the US market...

It really is gorgeous.
Plus, respect for the Arne Jacobsen fixtures in the upper image!

Looks beautiful, but I sat in it for a test run and it's very shallow. The XL is about 5cm higher IIRC, but still didn't work for me. Depending on how you like to bathe, it might not work. Tall folks, long soakers, and readers should look elsewhere.
