“Good design”: Axor and Patricia Urquiola in China

In front of an audience of international designers and renowned Chinese architects, Axor and Patricia Urquiola focus on the topic of modern bathroom

The inaugural Beijing International Design Triennial is drawing to a close. It has been a superlative spectacle: under the motto of "Ren: Good Design", more than 500 designers from about 40 countries showed what the contemporary design scene has to offer at present.

In the midst of it all were Patricia Urquiola’s Axor WaterDream and products from the Axor Urquiola bathroom collection. The concept of the poetic WaterDream forms part of what are known as "Creative Junctions" – the part of the exhibition showcasing the products of cooperative ventures between companies recognized around the world for their design competence and renowned creative individuals. In addition to Patricia Urquiola, the Beijing exhibition also features examples of the work of other Axor design partners, such as the Bouroullec brothers, and Philippe Starck.
