Cover Story: RAK Ceramics

RAK

As one of the largest ceramics brands in the world, RAK Ceramics provides a one-stop solution for interior design projects. Its product portfolio includes sanitaryware, taps, showers and brassware, accessories, furniture, mirrors and cabinets, plus kitchen sinks and taps. 

At the forefront of design innovation, RAK Ceramics collaborates with some of the world’s leading designers to create breath-taking bathroom collections. Giving porcelain perfection and limitless imagination, its passion and expertise, combined with a careful attention to detail, enables the brand to provide designers and end users with a wide range of integrated ceramics solutions, allowing them freedom to be creative and leaving plenty of room for imagination. 

RAK-Valet 

Patrick Norguet, an essential figure on the international design scene, collaborated with RAK Ceramics to create RAK-Valet – a stunning bathroom project that features exclusive shapes that fit seamlessly into the contemporary or traditional setting. 

With RAK-Valet, Norguet explores the dialogue between light and shadow, between volumes and lines, between elements, forms and materials. A delicate balance that is never disrupted, as each element becomes functional to the user. 

The RAK-Valet collection is composed of functional elements – available in matt and glossy finishes, that also have great visual impact: decorative forms with slender profiles for the washbasins, top-notch stylistic research for the bathtubs, and elongated lines for the toilet bowls. 

Commenting on the collection, Norguet said: “The world of the bathroom goes back to the dawn of time: the relationship to the body and hygiene – from Roman terms to oriental hammams – takes various forms depending on the culture. RAK-Valet proposes a synthetic and functional vision that allows us to introduce in our bathrooms a set of attitudes with a lot of sensuality and emotion. 

“Sometimes it is not necessary to reinvent everything, and RAK-Valet does not have this pretension: with its sober and elegant design, RAK-Valet brings us back to the essential elements that are water and its container, the basin. 

“To make it easier to use, I wanted to create several surfaces around this basic concept such as large trays or serving trays, which invite you to comfortably place products and care objects.” 

Completing the bathroom in style, the collection also includes a series of mirrors with left and right-hand ledges, while the vast brassware and accessories collections offered by RAK Ceramics complement the range perfectly. 

RAK-Cloud 

A similar collaboration took place between RAK Ceramics and renowned Italian designer Giuseppe Maurizio Scutellà. Together they created RAK-Cloud, bringing maximum comfort and luxurious styling to the modern bathroom. 

RAK-Cloud is a range of back-to wall, or wall-hung sanitaryware, elegant freestanding bathtubs and washbasins, softly curved bowls or wall-hung solutions. The RAK-Cloud WCs feature rimless technology for maximum hygiene and ease of cleaning, and the washbasin selection includes a beautifully elegant floorstanding piece. The sanitaryware is available in two shades of white – Matt White or Glossy Alpine White – and for the first time in autumn 2022 in sophisticated matt black.  

A centrepiece of the collection just as it will be a striking part of the bathroom, the RAK-Cloud freestanding bath is made of RAKSOLID, a durable material composed of a mixture of natural minerals and resins. The elegant matt white finish is pleasant to the touch and provides anti-slip safety, while the bath’s exterior can be chosen in White, Greige, Cappuccino, Grey and Black.
