In recent months Kaldewei has embarked on a Grand Tour with its most recent destination the WOW!house at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour. Family owned Kaldewei freatured the KALDEWEI CLASSIC DUO OVAL stone and tile brand, Ca ‘Pietra’ss, “Mediterranean Bathroom by De Rosee Sa”.
The concept of using natural stone and tiles to craft a bathroom sits well with Kaldewei’s ethos around recycling and sustainability. All Kaldewei products are manufactured from steel enamel and are 100% recyclable. More than 600 of them are Cradle to Cradle C2C Certified® silver.
The key element of the collaboration was the partnership with De Rosee Sa, the vision they shared with Ca ‘Pietra was to create a room that felt quietly nostalgic, inspired by the receding glamour of Mediterranean seaside hotels. They imagined walking into a bathroom overlooking the sea, where early summer light washes across warm stone floors and the boundaries between inside and outside begin to blur, inviting visitors to linger and take in the details.
Italian chic brings Fuorisalone design collaboration
This the perfect place for KALDEWEI to continue its Grand Tour, a tour which started in Italy at Salone del Mobile 2026, when during Milan Design week KALDEWEI presented their first design collaboration at Fuorisalone Villa Crespi, with Bubbles of Time. The installation unfolded in the foyers on the ground and basement floors of Palazzo Crespi, Kaldewei presented a selection of product icons and innovations a particular highlight being the classic freestanding bathtub the Meisterstück CLASSIC DUO OVAL in Dusty Pink. Created by Parasite 2.0 and curated by Forgotten Architecture the installation was inspired by the cinematic drama of a Hitchcock thriller, Hollywood panache and Italian grandeur combined. The theatrical setting allowed for floating forms, light and reflections with the products appearing like fleeting moments in time.
Spanish style at Casa Decor
Kaldewei then moved onto Spain for Casa Décor Madrid, where leading interior design studio ilv* Isabel López Vilalta created a space for Kaldewei at Casa Decor as an exercise in balance and sensitivity.
This displayed a gentle strength between contrasts – the industrial and the feminine, the past and the present, the project proposed a new way of understanding the bathroom as a place of calm and connection. A key element of the space was the NUIO DUO Zen Edition bathtub which introduced a multisensory dimension through heat, sound and light.
German design meets OYO DUO
There was a fleeting visit to Germany for Brand Space & Berlin Design Week Berlin, where the bold OYO DUO bathtub in Golden Sun was integral part of the KALDEWEI x e15 collaboration took centre stage, the tour will return to Berlin in September when the bath will be replaced by the Dusty Pink CLASSIC DUO OVAL.
Historic Clerkenwell is pretty in pink
In May the tour moved onto the UK to participate in Clerkenwell Design Week. Where Kaldewei participated for the first time, taking space in the remarkable Grade 1 listed building at the heart of Clerkenwell, The Charterhouse. Here amongst historic panelling and ancient works of art, they displayed their dusty pink freestanding bathtub CLASSIC DUO OVAL, new washbowls and the innovative CALIMA showertrays, which bring sustainability and stability in the form of recycled glass.
