Sink into the perfect bathtub, sink into The Comfort. Designed with a unique W cross-sectional form, the bathtub is designed ergonomically contoured to the human body. Even if you drift off into sleep, the bathtub design ensures you don’t accidentally slump into the water. A good thing about the form is that it features two distinct, one that allows babies to bathe safely without the need of filling the bathtub to full capacity.
As the designer explains, “Comfort has an integrated tap allowing water to come up into the two regions of the bath. While visually sleek and clean, this is another safety feature as research shows that taps are a common source of bumps and injuries – particularly to the elderly and the young. The bath overflow system prevents water spilling on to the bathroom floor and eliminates a major slip hazard. The design makes it easy to enter or exit the bath. The bath sides are lower and the sloping shape creates a raised edge for a convenient hand hold position.”
Comfort Bath is a 2012 Reece Bathroom Innovations Awards entry.
Designer: Vergillio Serra

The renowned Brazilian flip-flop maker steps into slip-ons and sneakers
Before Havaianas was born, its parent company Alpargatas, founded in 1907, exclusively sold espadrilles. (Alpargatas actually means espadrilles in Spanish.) Going back to these roots, the Brazilian maker of the popular flip-flops will introduce espadrilles, ballet flats and sneakers next Monday.
While the soles use the Brazilian company’s same ultra-soft rubber (a top-secret formula) that make their sandals so comfy, different materials for the uppers extend the brand with some added function. The espadrilles and ballet flats (both $38) keep it simple with cotton that comes in a variety of different colors. For an eco-friendly option that’s still durable, the
Staple-designed sneakers ($58-68) are made with Jute fiber that grows in the trenches of the Amazon River. (Havaianas still makes their shoes in Brazil.)
To give some context, cotton takes 10 years to decompose, polyester takes 100, while Jute only takes two years. Jute farming is also one of Brazil’s main economic activities so the purchase of the eco-styles supports their economy and the Brazilian environment.
