AXOR Introduces a New Architectural Approach to the Shower

AXOR Incava designed by Antonio Citterio introduces a new era of luxury bathing

AXOR Incava by Antonio Citterio

With AXOR Incava designed by Antonio Citterio, a shower environment is liberated from visible technology and transformed into a sanctuary of stillness, architecture, and contemporary ritual. Created to form a statement, a fully integrated object unites thermostat control, hand-held shower, and storage niche in one harmonious design, disappearing almost entirely within the wall. What remains is space for water, light, and atmosphere to take center stage.

“AXOR Incava represents a fundamental shift in bathroom design,” says designer Antonio Citterio. “By eliminating protruding parts—no handles, knobs, or visible elements—it transforms the bathroom from a technical space into a clear, integrated environment where the ritual of bathing becomes a tranquil experience. You move beyond the traditional notion of the bathroom and gain an entirely new spatial quality.”

Architectural Purity in Just 11 Millimeters

With understated elegance,AXOR Incava seamlessly integrates into any refined interior. Its signature soft-square escutcheon, extending just 11 millimeters from the wall, frames a perfectly flat front surface—purposefully quiet, yet undeniably expressive.Within this architectural clarity, function and form blend effortlessly. Here are some of the key features:

  • Flush-integrated Select buttons for precise thermostat control
  • Two finely knurled push buttons for water volume and temperature
  • An almost invisible 1-jet hand-held shower that appears only with a gentle press
  • A spacious ten-centimeter-deep storage niche

The hand-held shower elevates the moment of showering with a soft, enveloping PowderRain spray. The niche features subtle water drainage and an optional dimmable ambient light, casting a warm, atmospheric glow across the space.

Bespoke Luxury–Personalization at Its Finest

AXOR Incava embodies uncompromising individuality. The escutcheon, niche back panel, and control labels can be finished in a wide range of AXOR FinishPlus surfaces and further personalized with AXOR Signature. This allowsAXOR Incava to harmonize effortlessly with every AXOR collection—whether as a refined statement piece or an architectural extension.

Design Freedom Meets Effortless Convenience

Ideal for both shower and bathtub applications, AXOR Incava is available in multiple configurations, with or without ambient lighting, and offers the flexibility required for sophisticated architectural planning. The trim set can be easily removed, providing immediate access to the installation—an advantage for those who value both design and functionality.Distributors can be positioned freely across compatibleAXOR components, ensuring maximum freedom in bathroom design.The niche’s back panel can match the surrounding wall material or be specified in elegant black glass.With AXOR Signature, personalized symbols and custom engravings are also available, creating a truly bespoke experience.
