Axor ShowerProducts by Front
For their new collection with Hansgrohe’s Axor brand, the Swedish design group Front chose to draw attention to the pipes, joints, and valves typically hidden in shower fixtures. The line includes wall-mounted or ceiling-mounted showerheads in a funnel shape in two spray options, as well as a handshower and an adjustable wall-mounted shower set, all in chrome. All offer a 2.5 GPM flow and an “eco spray” that uses up to 60 percent less water than do conventional products — without sacrificing comfort.
