Anterois a minimal urinal designed by Milan-based designer Toan Nguyen and also the Winner of this year’s Red Dot Award. So, what makes an award winning urinal design?

Antero's greatest strength is the amount of water it saves due to its patented flush technology.

Developed by Nguyen together with Swiss bathroom manufacturer Laufen, Antero cleans the basin with just 1 litre of water preserving a greater amount of water than the traditional lavatory, making it an eco-conscious as well as stylish choice. Made from vitreous white china, the design’s smooth contours are complimented by Cinto – a matching  urinal divider with sleek rounded corners that provides the user with more privacy.

The smart hybrid flush control is equipped with a range of modes and triggers, cleaning either according to type of usage or at fixed intervals with varying flush volumes from 0.5 to 3 litres. An integrated overflow protection provides additional safety in the event of the outlet being clogged.
